Shipping times & information

Shipping times specified are an estimation only. Most Reign Bowstrings are made to order so there will naturally be a delay in this case. It is possible for an increased delay if there is a large amount of orders in the system. Where possible we will try to advise you of any delay.

Usual shipping times:

  • Accessories: 1-2 working days
  • Recurve strings: 2-3 working days
  • Compound sets/components: 7-10 working days

Orders, unless specifically requested, will be dispatched in one consignment. Expected shipping times for multiple groups of orders will be the latest of these (e.g. 1 compound set and 1 accessory will be 7-10 working days).

Most UK orders are shipped via Royal Mail first class or first class Signed for. Signatures may be required for orders over £50. It is your responsibility to provide correct shipping information and ensure that the delivery can be signed for if needed. For overseas delivery, these will be shipped through Royal Mail Standard Air Mail or, in the case of orders over £50 or for some countries in particular, Royal Mail tracked and/or signed. Again it is your responsibility to provide correct shipping information and ensure that the delivery can be signed for if needed.

If it is not possible for the courier to successfully deliver your order, it may be returned to us. In this case, you will be responsible for the cost of shipping again.

Packages should be inspected for damage and noted before signing. You need to inform us of any discrepancies/damage within 3 working days of delivery.

Tax, Customs & Duty

VAT is included in the advertised price for UK customers.

If you are outside of the UK, please create an account and add your address to display prices excluding VAT.

For orders shipped within the UK

20% VAT is charged at the checkout.

For orders shipped to the EU

As the UK is no longer a member of the EU, you will not pay VAT at the checkout.  Instead, you will pay your local VAT at the point of delivery.

You may also be charged on delivery duty and customs fees if applicable.  This will vary depending on products ordered, order value and local rules, typically between 0% and 3%.  However, we are trying to offset these costs by providing low-cost shipping rates.

Please note, if you refuse or do not pay these charges, what happens next is out of our control.

If the parcel is returned to us without any additional charges, we will refund you the original cost of goods, excluding the shipping charge and any reductions to reflect the loss of value of the modified goods as laid out below.

If we incur additional costs to recover the goods, this cost will be deducted from the refund value.

If we are unable to recover the goods, no refund will be given.

For orders shipped outside the UK and EU

No tax will be charged at the checkout.

For orders outside of the UK you will be responsible for the payment of all import duties and local taxes, as well as any additional customs clearance charges.

If you refuse or do not pay these charges, what happens next is out of our control.

If the parcel is returned to us without any additional charges, we will refund you the original cost of goods, excluding the shipping charge and any reductions to reflect the loss of value of the modified goods as laid out below.

If we incur additional costs to recover the goods, this cost will be deducted from the refund value.

If we are unable to recover the goods, no refund will be given.

Cancellations

The Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 gives you the right to cancel your order within 14 days after receiving your goods. However products that are irreparably modified are exempt from these rights.

Please note that all bowstrings, unless already made, are irreparably modified from the original components and therefore are exempt from the cancellation rights of the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 once the building begins.

For all other products, if you wish to cancel, you must inform us in writing with details of your order.

The responsibility is on you for the cost and process of returning the goods, insured for the value of the product, and it is your responsibility to ensure that goods are unused and in original packaging.

We reserve the right to reduce the amount refunded from the original cost of the product, reflecting the loss of value of the product returned.

  • If the warranty or fault is accepted, we will contact you with the options following this.
  • If the warranty is rejected, we will return the goods back to you. You will be responsible for the cost of returning the goods in this case.
