Weather Disruption

Unfortunately, severe weather conditions can disrupt our couriers from time to time. We have seen this in recent winters with localised snow and ice leading to dangerous road conditions and airport closures. This can affect the services we offer and will affect the usual guarantee of service levels that are offered by our couriers. Naturally, Couriers will always put the safety of its drivers and ancillary staff first over performance targets. Couriers do make

Every effort to put in place contingency plans when bad weather hits certain postcode areas. However, delays and back logs do occur from time to time.

These circumstances are beyond the control of both Gorgeousshop.com and its courier partners. When selecting shipping methods please be aware that no refunds will be given on Express Delivery (usually next working day) or other timed delivery services if the courier is unable to operate its normal services due to bad weather. Express Delivery Services will always take priority and are still the fastest way to receive items.

We apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused to our customers as a result of adverse weather conditions.

Errors On Receipt Of Your Order

Any errors or missing items must be notified to us within 7 days of receipt of your order. We will be unable to redress any errors after this time has elapsed.

Proof Of Delivery

UK Saver Delivery, UK Priority and Express Delivery (UK Mainland), Standard and Priority Delivery (UK Exceptions) and some Euro Parcel orders will require a signature to release the parcel. Someone must be at your nominated delivery address to sign for your parcel between 8am and 8pm, so please provide a Delivery Address where the parcel can be reliably signed for, such as your place of work or a neighbours’ residence.

International Deliveries

All international deliveries are usually shipped via road to the nominated country and then passed on to the local postal service. Please refer to the Delivery Times Estimator for your region. Parcels may have to pass through local customs which can delay your delivery. Countries outside the EU are subject to additional customs charges which vary considerably and are not included in the cost. These charges must be paid for by the recipient before the package is cleared. Gorgeousshop.com cannot refund any customs or import duty paid by the recipient.

Re-Shipping of Orders / Orders Returned by Our Couriers

If your parcel has not been delivered it may be sitting at your local Royal Mail/Courier depot. If you fail to retrieve the parcel, your parcel fails to be delivered on more than one occasion, no safe place option has been specified or your parcel is refused at the delivery address it will then be returned to us and there will be one of three courses of action. In the first instance we will attempt to contact you when your order is returned, however on occasion you may contact us before we have the opportunity to contact you, in both instances the following options will be available to you:

We can issue a refund minus the initial postage costs. – If your delivery was free, as per our terms & conditions on promotional postage, a fee* will be deducted from your refund to cover return postage and admin costs.

We can re-dispatch the parcel to you, however please note this will incur a further fee* to cover admin and postage costs.

If we have contacted you and have not received a response after 7 calendar days we will automatically process "Option 1"

* The fee will be charged based on the original shipping method used for UK delivery or International delivery. Please note even if your order qualified for free shipping you will be charged for the equivalent postage costs as return of the item voids the promotional postage offer.
