Payments
Payment has to be made at the point of purchase through the secure payment system on our website. All online transactions are encrypted using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol (SSL) with an encryption key length of 128-bits (the highest level commercially available).
Cardholder information is encrypted and cardholder details are not visible to us when an order is placed via our partners (Paypal, Stripe) online. None of your personal information can be accessed by third parties.
All transactions are made in British Pounds Sterling. If applicable, the exchange rate is calculated by the payment card provider at time of transaction. Please note that some banks may charge you a fee for certain transactions e.g. international transactions.
Any refunds to overseas orders will be in British Pounds Sterling for the exact amount charged by us in Pounds Sterling. Rivelin Arts cannot be held responsible for any variations in exchange rates and consequent loss of currency as a result of currency or exchange rate changes. We strongly recommend our customers to consider this before placing and confirming any international orders.
Processing times
Most o our items are made to order and require between 1-5 working days processing time.
We still aim to dispatch and deliver UK orders within 2-7 business days. However, there may be delays around Christmas and bank holidays. As many of our items are handmade to order, we need on average 1-3 working days to process your order. Please let me know, if you need your items faster and we can see what we can do.
Processing times for commissions and custom orders vary according to the project. We will discuss your wishes in detail and ask for your confirmation on all aspects before completing the project. Custom orders have to be paid at the time of ordering and are non-returnable and non-refundable.
Delivery charges
Delivery charges are based on final, packaged order weight. They start at only £1.50 for UK orders and vary according to destination country.
We offer Free UK delivery on orders over £75.00.
Many of our items can be shipped individually in large letter boxes. However, where several items are combined, we may be able to combine or need to recalculate your shipping costs to international destinations as the parcel size and price category changes.
Please contact us per email if you want to check timing or costs of delivery, when placing a larger order.
We are very happy to help!
