Delivery Schedule

​

At Marie-Clare Vintage, we endeavour to process and despatch your orders as quickly as possible and orders placed before 12 noon are normally despatched the same day. Next Working Day orders should be with you the working day after ordering (please note Next Working Day orders placed after noon on Thursday will be delivered on the following Monday and orders placed after noon on Friday and over the weekend will be delivered on the following Tuesday). 1 to 3 day is also often delivered the next working day but it is NOT a guaranteed service so may take slightly longer. Small items are usually sent with the Royal Mail and larger items with a carrier, FedEx, DPD, Evri or UPS.

During periods of peak demand we may not be able to keep up with our normal despatch schedule so if your order is time critical please e-mail us at marieclarevintage@gmail.com to let us know that your order is urgent

1-to-3-day parcels should in theory be, and in many cases are, delivered the following working day. Although at times it can take slightly longer, we regret that we cannot take any action with regards to delayed 1st class parcels until 14 working days after despatch.

International orders are generally sent by air and delivered in 7 to 10 days depending on destination

All delivery times are estimates only and Marie-Clare Vintage cannot guarantee delivery times due to any inconsistency, bad weather or other unavoidable problem with the carriers or the Royal Mail.

If you feel that your order is overdue, please e-mail marieclarevintage@gmail.com and we will investigate for you.

All next Working Day and large parcels will require a signature on delivery so please ensure that someone will be available at the delivery address to sign for the parcel.

Should we be unable to deliver your goods as agreed, Marie-Clare Vintage will contact you to arrange an alternative delivery time. Should no alternative arrangements be possible a full refund will be made.
