Postage
Orders placed on our website with a value that exceeds £55 will be sent out carriage free to UK mainland destinations* (*Highlands and Islands all attract additional postage costs that you will be informed about before dispatch). Orders under £55 will attract a £2.75 postal charge. You also have a choice of Express delivery and Next Day Courier Service.
Stock
We aim only to show items on our website that are in stock, however there are some reasons why your item may not be in stock:
the website is updated on a daily basis, items may be sold in the shop, someone else may have ordered in front of you, the software might have caused an error or we might have 'messed up'. In any of these cases we will contact you to let you know why and when you can expect your order, at that point you can cancel your order if you wish.
UK Delivery Times - Items In Stock
All in stock items are dispatched the same day if ordered before 3pm (except weekends). Delivery times depend on the shipping method chosen.
Normal Postage - This is free when you have spent over £55 otherwise attracts our standard rate. Shipping times are normally 3-6 working days.
Express Delivery - This option will normally get your goods to you in 1-2 working days but is not guaranteed.
Next day delivery only applies to Monday through to Thursday at 4pm, any orders made after this time with a next day request will be shipped on the Monday (as long as it's not a holiday) to arrive Tuesday. If you require a Saturday delivery then please contact us and we can give you a quote. Please note there is no next day delivery available for the highlands and islands, if you are ordering from the highlands or islands and request next day delivery it will be a 48hr service NOT next day.
If you require a Saturday delivery we are happy to oblige but this normally attracts a premium (dependant on size and weight of the item in question), so please contact us and we will be happy to quote you.
UK Delivery Times - Items Out Of Stock & Pre Order Items
If you order an item that is "Out Of Stock" or available on a "Pre-Order Basis", we will email you on the next working day after receiving your order and inform you of the expected delivery date of your order. If the expected delivery date is not suitable for you - you can cancel your order. If you have paid for any premium postage options this will be refunded to you if we cannot get the goods to you in the stated times.
International Delivery Times - Items In Stock
Dependant on type of service used, normally 3 to 5 days for European destinations and 3 to 10 days for the rest of the world, all international packages are sent Airsure unless the customer would like an alternate service. All deliveries require a signature upon arrival.
When ordering boots or shoes please try and order the correct size originally, or two sizes if you are not sure, so as to ensure you don't have to pay any extra postage.
We ship worldwide, the standard rate is £15. Some items do not fit in our standard rate bracket as they may be of a large volume or weight, also if you are ordering more than one item, again, it may exceed the size/weight levels dictated. It is usually worth bearing in mind that once the weight goes over 2kg shipping costs to international destinations go up considerably. if this is the case we will contact you before we ship and advice you of any further costs. At this point you can cancel your order and receive a full refund if you wish or pay any additional postage costs and continue with your order.

* Please note we cannot accept any climbing hardware or software for return, software is classified as slings and the like. The reason for this is we do not know whether it has been used or not, even if it still has the tags on and would therefore make it impossible for us to sell.

At V12 we do our best to recycle all that we can, this means we try to re-use packaging such as boxes and padded envelopes where ever possible. Also all of our protective packaging is recycled too.
