Why is your minimum postage charge £3.50?
We use a tracked service which costs us a minimum of £3.50, even for a letter sized parcel. With standard untracked, we found we were doing a lot of chasing of lost/delayed parcels. Then we have the dilemma of whether to send items again (so we lose out on stock) or make the customer wait (not great service). It is not a very effective use of time and resources when running a business.
With tracked services, goods are insured for loss which is important for us and you as a customer. You can also see where your parcel is using the tracking number, and when it is due for delivery.
Do you ship Internationally?
Yes send goods all over the World. More details here.
How are your payments processed?
We use the Shopify/Stripe platforms to process all sales securely. We accept most cards but if you have problems with an international payment then please get in touch at grace@shopbeyondmeasure.co.uk as we can issue a Paypal invoice as an alternative option.
Can I return an item?
Yes, please contact us by email if you wish to return an item for any reason. Please read our full terms and conditions for more details.
Can I pre-order an item that is out of stock?

IF YOUR ORDER HAS NOT ARRIVED WITHIN 5 DAYS OF POSTING (UK) or 10 DAYS (INTERNATIONAL):
- Check your order despatch email from us to view your order and get your Royal Mail tracking number. Enter the number at https://www.royalmail.com/track-your-item#/

- If it says that it has been delivered but you haven't received it, please check the following:
- If the item was sent to your home, ask anyone else living there if they accepted the delivery. Please also check if the item has been left with a neighbour, or in your designated safeplace if you have one.
- If the item was sent to your work address, check with the post room and your colleagues to see if someone accepted the delivery.
- Check with your local depot to see if they are holding the parcel - notification cards sometimes get lost or are not left.
