Shipping policy

UK delivery

We currently deliver to UK addresses only. Orders are packaged using Colompac® book boxes to ensure excellent protection in transit: these mailers are made from FSC-certified materials.

Orders are shipped using Royal Mail. Delivery estimates begin once your order has been dispatched and are estimates rather than guarantees. Tracked24 and Tracked48 orders include tracking information. 

  • Tracked48: £4.95, with estimated delivery within 2–3 working days. This is the recommended option for most orders. Free Tracked48 delivery is available on orders over £50. 
  • Tracked24: £5.95, with estimated delivery within 1–2 working days. 

    Orders received by 6pm are normally dispatched on the next Royal Mail working day. Orders placed after 6pm may take an additional working day to dispatch. Delivery times may be affected by Royal Mail delays, weekends, bank holidays or circumstances outside our control.

    If your order has not arrived by the end of the estimated delivery window, please contact orders@vanitasbooks.co.uk.
