Ordering Information

 

All prices quoted are in UK Pounds sterling.

 

Private Customers

Print Books

Private customers purchasing print editions via the Archaeopress website will receive a complimentary eBook edition of the same volume (if available in e-formats). This will be available to download immediately upon completion of your purchase; a download link will also be supplied via email along with the receipt of purchase. Customers who create an online account will be able to re-download any past eBook purchases, including those acquired when purchasing printed books, at any time via the 'My Account' section.

 

Important note: Print orders may be despatched from one of several distribution partners, depending on the delivery destination. All distributors include packing notes of one kind or another - Marston Book Services Ltd. include a 'Pre-Paid' invoice showing a value 'To Pay' matching your online order, which sometimes causes confusion. This is not a request for additional payment, the paperwork is purely for logistical purposes and can be discarded.

 

eBooks

eBooks purchased for personal use will be available to download immediately upon completion of your purchase; a download link will also be supplied via email along with the receipt of purchase. Customers who create an online account will be able to re-download any past eBook purchases at any time via the 'My Account' section.

Important note: Please note, when ordering on account, all payments should be made directly to Archaeopress. Print orders may be despatched from one of several distribution partners, depending on the delivery destination. All distributors include packing notes of one kind or another - Marston Book Services Ltd. include a 'Pre-Paid' invoice showing a value 'To Pay' matching your online order, including payment instructions.

If there is any doubt, please contact us here before making any payment, and we can advise accordingly: info@archaeopress.com

 

eBooks: Multi-User Licences

Libraries/Institutions with an Archaeopress account may purchase multi-user eBook licences. The library/institution may provide online access to their legitimate, registered users via IP recognition, or by a unique username and password. Alternatively, or in addition to online access via the Archaeopress platform, the library/institution may choose to download and self-host the eBook via their own platform.

 

Licences are perpetual, with no limits imposed on numbers of downloads, nor on concurrent usage.

 

Delivery Information

Shipping will be calculated at checkout, based on weight, destination, and shipping method (standard or courier).

 

Orders typically despatch within 7-10 working days. Shipping times vary considerably depending on destination and shipping method. Please allow 28 days before enquiring about the whereabouts of an order.

 

UK Orders

Orders destined for the UK will default to courier. We are able to track these orders and, typically, the price is competitive when compared to untraceable shipping via Royal Mail.

 

Non-UK Orders

Orders heading to destinations outside the UK have the option to be sent via standard method (shipping via untraceable airmail), or courier. Standard shipments are not insured, and are sent at the recipients own risk. Heavier shipments must be shipped via courier. If you have any queries or concerns, please contact info@archaeopress.com.

 

Import Charges

Since the UK left the European Union, imports from the UK to EU countries are subject to import VAT. The customer may be contacted by a courier agent prior to delivery to request payment of any applicable VAT and customs clearance charges. VAT will be calculated at the local rate for book sales at the destination address. Customs clearance charges will vary by courier and destination. The customer will be liable for all import charges payable to the courier. Please note, Archaeopress is unable to advise the exact value of these charges in advance. Please contact info@archaeopress.com prior to placing an order if you have any queries relating to the new Brexit rules.

 

We are working to ship all orders from local distribution points. We hope to have updates on this shortly.

 

Cancellations and Refunds:

If you wish to cancel an order please let us know as soon as possible. If we have already dispatched your order, you may return it at your own expense and we shall refund the cost of the books. Please contact us before returning any books.

 

Damaged or faulty books may be returned for a replacement copy (when available) or a refund. We will refund any postage charges you incur in returning a damaged book to us. Please contact us before returning any book.

 

Refunds will always be processed via the same method that payment was originally made.
