Particularly large or heavy items may have separate shipping charges shown before purchase. Delivery is available only to destinations offered at checkout.
Delivery times
Delivery times depend on the product, availability and destination. Processing or production time is separate from transit time. Please check the product information and delivery options shown at checkout.
For the international Correos Paq Light routes checked, estimated transit time is 4–10 working days after handover to the carrier. This is an estimate and does not apply to every delivery service. Pre-orders and items produced to order may require additional time.
Digital PDF editions do not require physical shipping. Where available for the selected service, tracking information is sent with your dispatch confirmation. Please contact us before ordering if you need an item by a specific date.
