	how to order from us
Ordering	If you're happy ordering online, just visit our online shop. You'll find all our books, booklets, and posters on sale there. Alternatively, email us letting us know what you would like, together with a shipping address (and phone number if you're outside the UK). If you're a new customer we'll send you an invoice detailing your purchase, shipping charges, and payment options; if we know you we'll send the books with an invoice. You can pay by sterling cheque, by direct bank transfer, or by credit card - you'll find all the options detailed on the invoice we send. If you choose to pay by credit card we'll send an email with a link to Square where you can quickly and securely pay with your credit card. We can also take credit card payments over the phone - our phone number will be on the invoice. (We prefer NOT to use PayPal because the fees are too high.) If you wish to pay with a cheque that is not drawn in pounds, please let us know and we will resubmit the invoice in your currency; please note however that we will need to add Ł10 to the amount due, which is what our bank charges us. Shipping is additional unless otherwise stated; we'll send your books by the cheapest reliable means in the UK, and by air mail abroad at the printed papers rate where economical and otherwise by a shipping service, unless you tell us otherwise. When appropriate we use a service requiring a signature. If you're outside the UK you will be responsible for paying any local taxes etc., but we always mark parcels as 'books' and/or with the appropriate tariff code for books where required. Prices published on this website and our shop take precedence over estimated prices on printed prospectuses and announcements: planning and producing a book is a variable affair so please check before ordering. Book dealer discount is a quarter unless otherwise indicated. Books are zero-rated for VAT. Measurements for books and posters give the height first.
