We have taken care in presenting the products on our website as accurately as possible. The images you see will depend on your monitor’s display and colour capabilities. We are therefore unable to guarantee that the product images you see are an accurate representation of the actual merchandise. All our images are taken onsite, of our stock and are not from an archive.

Lost Packages

Even though packages are sent via secure insured courier service on rare occasions we do experience losses whilst in transit. If this occurs, please allow 10 days for the package to arrive from the date of dispatch. Please be aware that if we are not contacted within 30 days, an insurance claim cannot be made and thus the customer will be unable to claim any loss from Carter Marsh & Co
