Delivery, Refund and Returns Policy

We have done our best to keep these costs as low as possible while allowing us to use a courier company that can track deliveries. We have no minimum order amount and excellent carriage charges as follows.

Sample Delivery rates for Republic of Ireland & Northern Ireland:

€6.99 – Small orders less than 1kg (up to 20 rolls of film for example)
€8.00 – Medium Orders between 1 and 2kg, a lot of the 1ltr bottles of chemistry will be in this range.
€9.99 – Orders up to 20kg or bulky items (developing trays, 16×20 paper etc)

Orders are usually delivered three working days following the date of order but occasionally there may be delays at busy times for our couriers which is out of our control. Therefore it is advisable to order your supplies well in advance of when you need them.

It is very important that you enter your correct phone number and Eircode when ordering, as this information is required by the courier.

Collections: We are an online shop and typically we cannot arrange for collection – but sometimes this is possible so please email us if you feel this is essential.

Packaging: As part of a responsible and sustainable business model, we try to reduce our carbon footprint by using previously used packing materials that come from our suppliers and elsewhere.

International delivery:  We are delighted to be able to ship worldwide from our stores in Ireland so if you are looking for some of our excellent products send us a mail with your needs including a rough address and we will give you a shipping estimate.

Delivery rates to United Kingdom:

We know that in a post Brexit world it can be a bit harder to get some products in the UK, we can help!
Rates from €17.00 to €23.00 depending on weight and size of package. If you are purchasing small light items, such as film, please contact us as we can send by post for a cheaper rate.
