Bookshop Enquiries

UK deliveries usually take about 2 days. 

International Tracked orders take about 7 working days to be delivered. International Untracked orders are usually delivered within 10-12 working days but it could take up to 60 days in the worst case.

Orders are considered as lost 10 working days after delivery due date for UK, 30 days after delivery due date for International Tracked and 60 days after delivery due date for International Untracked.

Sometimes delays are inevitable. If you believe your order is lost, contact us.

We will ship anywhere in the world provided there is a reliable postal service able to deliver. 

We use the IOSS system for sales to the EU which effectively means that in the vast majority of cases, your order will arrive with no further payments necessary.  We charge the relevant amount of VAT and we pay it on your behalf to the different tax authorities via an agent.  This is the common system used by most businesses involved in cross border sales.

If you paid VAT on your order and you are asked by your country’s customs control to pay additional VAT to deliver the parcel, it is necessary for us to know, so that we can refund the VAT amount you paid initially to us. Please contact us about this matter.

If you have received the wrong book, something is missing or you received something you didn’t order. Please contact us to rectify this for you. 

We aim to process and post orders within 48 hours. 

Sometimes depending on the Church calendar, our processing times may be longer than usual. i.e. during Holy Week.

We recognise the need to support our fellow monasteries and church bookshops so we offer a discount to them whatever the size of their order. 

Please first register an account with us and then contact us and we will add the discount for you so that it is automatically applied to your basket each time you log in.

Our website was created in order to sell our own publications.  In the future we might expand to include other popular books and also icons, cards and other items sold in our onsite bookshops. At the moment if you know exactly what you are looking for you may contact us with specific details and we’ll do our best to assist you. However, if you are making a general stock enquiry regrettably it’s beyond our capacity to help at this stage.
