Question: What is a pre-order?

Question: When will my pre-order arrive?
- The product listing gives an estimated arrival time for the product, please note that this date can change due to changes in manufacturing and shipping schedules. These dates are updated monthly, keep track of your pre-orders by logging into My Orders for the latest estimated arrival date. When stock arrives, pre-orders are despatched in the order that they were placed.
We accept no liability for items arriving earlier or later than the estimated arrival time.
