About Us
www.stamps.co.uk is a family owned internet
retail business run by Becky and Simon. Becky is in charge
of day to day running and is the crafty one, while Simon
is the Web and technical man. It was started in February
2004 with the website going live in September 2004. We were
very small back then with only a small range of about 200
products and the stock/packing room was attached to the
house. Now however with over 6000 products we have 800 square
foot premises in the centre of our village – very
conveniently for Becky above the Tea Rooms! We have four
great staff whom work extremely hard: packing, checking
stock and attending to all the other jobs that need doing.
CLOSING DOWN - All stock ONLY WHILE
STOCKS LAST - Last Date for ordering Sun 28th Feb 2010
On a personal note thank you all for your
custom - crafters are the best, but I will be moving on
to pastures new. We have been trading successfully for 6
years now and will continue to do so until we close, but
I have other interests which I now wish to pursue - Becky
Our aims…
To pack & despatch your order on the same
or next working day when all items are in stock. This will
be longer during our closing down sale.
To answer email/phone enquiries within 2 working
days.
To be up front about stock levels so you can
see in your basket what’s in stock and what’s
not.
If we make a mistake (& we are only human)
to put it right as soon as possible.
What we do…
Parcels are sent 2nd Class or Parcel Post.
This keeps postage costs low (£2.95 for £29.99
or less & FREE for £30+) and because we pack so
quickly we easily compete with companies who send 1st!
At our discretion large orders or those that
weigh over 2kg are sent Royal Mail Parcels or Courier for
Next Day Delivery.
Out of stock items –
as we are closing down we will not be getting any further
stock. It is only possible to purchase stock currretnly
showing available. However, if there is a mistake in our
stock and it is no longer available we will notify you when
your order is picked allowing your to choose a refund for
the item or an alternative for the same price.
Newsletter – this is
sent out once a month to all those who choose to subscribe
when they create an account. Occasionally, when we have
fantastic promotions or items lots of people have been waiting
for, we send out a brief interim letter.
Re-cycling - we do this as
much as possible by re-using boxes, envelopes and packaging
materials wherever possible.
