Delivery times
We aim to ship the majority of products within 5-7 working days.
All orders have an estimated delivery date, online tracking is available and email tracking notifications are sent when your order ships.
P:EASE NOTE: Domestic Royal Mail 1st Class is taking up to 10 days to deliver, longer for 2nd Class. Therefore we are offering DPD Tracked shipping, although we cannot guarantee delivery before Christmas.
Packaging
Our packaging standards ensure product orders arrive in perfect condition. Protective sleeves, plastic corner guards and heavy-duty cardboard boxes are used to minimise the risk of breakages or transit damage.
We use bespoke recycled double-walled boxes so that prints and photo prints arrive in an undamaged condition wherever they are shipped in the world. All packages are optimised for transport, resulting in excellent and cost effective international shipping rates.
All framed and canvas prints are wrapped in a protective sleeve with individual plastic guards added to each corner. Additional cardboard is secured over the print surface to minimise the risk of breakages or transit damage. Each print is then shipped in a heavy-duty cardboard box.
Cancellation policy
The Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 provide the right to customers to cancel their order at any time prior to delivery and up to fourteen (14) working days after receiving the goods, starting on the day after you receive the goods.
If you wish to cancel your order during the fourteen (14) day period please notify us by email at shop@wheelsoftime.uk.
If you have already received your goods, you must return the goods at your own cost, to the address below, within fourteen (14) working days of the cancellation date.
Refunds will be made within fourteen (14) days of the cancellation date, to the card which you originally used for the purchase.
Nothing in these conditions affects your statutory rights as a consumer.
Our usual cancellation policy does not apply to framed and unframed prints made to order. If you decide to cancel your made to order framed or unframed print for any reason, it is unlikely we could sell it again at full price. Therefore, a 20% cancellation fee of the order price will apply.

Items delivered to an overseas address must be returned within 30 days of the cancellation date, unused, unopened (with any seals and shrink-wrap intact) and accompanied by the original delivery note.
Goods must be returned at your own cost and we would recommend that you return the goods by recorded delivery. We can only accept the return, and refund opened items if they are faulty.
