Lord Dodo has always included the cost of UK delivery* in the prices shown on this website but, due to recent steep increases in fuel and postal costs, we have regrettably been forced to levy a £1.50 handling charge per delivery, for the time being, to help defray these increases. We hope to be able to remove this at a point where the surcharges we are being charged are removed or reduced.

* The only exception to this is where we have introduced a 'low order value' supplement of £2.95 if the value of your total goods ordered (before any handling or overseas postage supplements) is less than £7.95. Any supplement/surcharge will be added automatically to your order at checkout.

If your order is going to an address outside the United Kingdom, at checkout, select Shipping Destination and choose the country where you wish to send your order. The overseas shipping supplement will be displayed automatically. If you wish to change your order, please click on the cart icon.
