Royal Mail Cyber Incident - an update

1/28/2023

0 Comments

 
Royal Mail are still not accepting overseas parcels at the Post Office due to ongoing IT issues, related to this cyber incident a couple of weeks ago

Where possible, we have posted what we can with alternative carriers and absorbed the extra cost, but this has not been possible for all locations

We are checking with Royal Mail daily for updates to see when we can resume posting to our overseas cusomers on a regular basis

Thankyou for your patience

 Just arrived today! 

We already stock their very popular kits for German vehicles and they have now added three American stowage based kits to their range 

Great detail and crisp finishing, just require a little fettling (and painting of course) 

Find them on our website in the Diorama and Sherman sections - £20 per kit plus postage

Thanks to everyone who has ordered with us over the festive period 

We are working today and getting all the orders sorted and packed

Please note that the Post Office and Royal Mail are closed over the UK Bank Holiday period and do not re-open until Wednesday 28th December

We will be posting everything on 28th and hopefully they will arrive with you relatively quickly

We are aware that there are still backlogs within Royal Mail because of the strike dates in the run up to Christmas, but we are again hopeful that they will clear this quickly now it's a little quieter

Last Posting Dates for Christmas

12/7/2022

0 Comments

 
Last posting dates for items are approaching fast and with the industrial action disrupting the Royal Mail deliveries, we would encourage everyone to order as soon as they can if they need items in time for Christmas

9th December - USA and most European destinations (this is for International Tracked only)

12th December - UK Second Class 

16th December - UK First Class

If you are using a non tracked international service, anything ordered now is unlikely to reach you before Christmas

We are posting every day as normal, but with the continued disruption, we just cannot guarantee when your items will arrive

​Apologies

Back on the blog.... Postal delays due to strikes

12/6/2022

0 Comments

 
Hi everyone

We have been away from the blog for a while for technical reasons, but are back with updates now 

Unfortunately, the first one is to say we are seeing increasing delays with postal deliveries due to the industrial action at Royal Mail

The postal service in the UK has been disrupted for the last few weeks with various days of strike action. Coupled with the fact that this time of the year is extra busy, we are seeing it is taking longer and longer for all postal items, both domestic and international, to arrive 

We have approached other carriers, but they too are swamped on the back of the Cyber Weekend in the UK and the busy Christmas period 

We are still posting every single day, but we will have to ask you to bear with us while your items are processed through the Royal Mail network
