Orders to Europe and the EU will incur a minimum tracked delivery cost of £19.50 in all cases, the USA and Canada £29.50 will apply and the Rest of the World £36.95.

Orders for frozen food and live food can only be accepted for mainland United Kingdom and will be sent by courier for dispatch on a guaranteed timed service. In the event of a live food and frozen food delivery not having arrived by 1pm on the agreed day, customers are obliged to inform us of the problem with delivery immediately by telephone or email. Failure to inform us of a delayed delivery of live food or frozen foods by this time could invalidate any guarantee of safe arrival of live/frozen goods, and customers could not be entitled to a replacement of their order. Reptilian World denies any liability for any loss resulting from damaged or faulty items, or late delivery.

We will despatch your goods by the most appropriate method. This may be by Royal Mail, Courier or direct from the wholesaler. We will ensure that your goods are correctly packaged before despatch but cannot accept liability for damage sustained by their subsequent treatment. Delivery of your parcel will be attempted once. If a delivery of dry goods cannot be made the parcel will be returned to the sorting office/courier’s depot for collection by yourself. Customers who refuse to accept a delivery will be entitled to a refund of the items’ purchase price once it has been returned to Reptilian World in good condition: however, in such circumstances Reptilian World will be entitled not to refund the shipping cost paid by the customer in the initial transaction.

Frozen foods will be packaged to arrive still frozen. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that somebody is available at the delivery address to receive a frozen food order. Reptilian World accepts no responsibility for frozen food orders which are defrosted/spoiled because nobody was available to receive the delivery. In the unlikely event that your frozen food order does not reach you in satisfactory condition contact us within 24 hours of receipt. We cannot replace or exchange any frozen food reported back to us after this 24 hour period. We reserve the right to postpone delivery of any frozen food or live food orders which are placed during extreme weather conditions e.g., flood, deep snow, heat wave.

Delivery of live foods will usually result in next day delivery, but this cannot be guaranteed. If you wish to have your live foods delivered by special delivery, please contact us before placing an order. Special delivery will incur an extra cost. We reserve the right to postpone live food deliveries if the overnight temperatures are not favourable.

WEEE Regulations

The ‘Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive) ‘was introduced in January 2007 by the Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment Regulations 2006 and subsequently updated. The WEEE Directive aims to reduce the amount of electrical and electronic equipment being produced to encourage everyone to reuse, recycle and recover it. The Bird Loft is obliged therefore to offer customers free disposal of their WEEE when they purchase a similar new electrical or electronic product. Customers must forward their old WEEE item to us within 14 days of purchasing their new item. Items can be posted back to us, but we will not accept returns of WEEE without a copy of the receipt or invoice for the similar purchased item.
