Orders
Will My Order Be Safe While In Transit?
Of course. All items are dispatched within a 100% recyclable, sealed and padded package. The actual items are also complete with white fabric pouches and if your purchased item is worth over £50, you will also receive a collectable ANCHOR & CREW tin along with the pouch.
What Happens If An Item Is Missing From An Order?
Although very rare given our team's setup, mistakes can indeed happen from time to time. If there is any item missing, please contact us and we shall investigate this for you.
What If A Received Item Is Faulty?
If you receive a faulty item, please contact us (with photographic evidence) and we will happily replace this for you. All items arrive with a 1 year brand warranty and so you will be covered under this protection. Please note, however, that the guarantee does not cover against damage that has occurred due to maltreatment. We will also advise you how to return the faulty item back.
Can I Cancel Or Amend My Order Once Placed?
If you change your mind after placing an order, you can cancel or amend it at any time before we dispatch it. We dispatch all parcels at the local time shown in the delivery counter that is displayed beneath the blue bar across the header of this website (for Great Britain this is 4pm GMT & BST). Please contact us immediately to ensure that the item has not yet been dispatched and let us know your name, address details and order number. Whilst we will make every effort to cancel or amend the order, this isn't always possible due to the time of request, and if we are unable to help, your order can be returned for a full refund within 28 days.
What If An Ordered Item Is The Wrong Size?
If you have received an incorrectly sized item we will happily send you the correct size (subject to availability). Please contact us and we will arrange this for you, and will also advise you how to return the incorrect item back.
Delivery
How Long Does Standard Delivery Take?
Every UK order of in stock item(s) is dispatched the same working day using Royal Mail Recorded Postage as standard regardless of the item's size. Providing your order is placed with us before the local time shown in the delivery counter that is displayed beneath the blue bar across the header of this website (For Great Britain this is 4pm GMT & BST), your item(s) should arrive to a UK address within 2-3 working days (in 99% of occasions, except The Highlands and Channel Islands). This Royal Mail Recorded Postage is entirely FREE if you spend over £20.00 on your order, or £5.00 as standard if less.
Why Do You Use Recorded Delivery As Standard?
We like to make sure our customers come first and so our standard Recorded option is above and beyond the typical Royal Mail First Class, enabling a degree of postage insurance, basic tracking and a signature-on-receipt.
Can I Track My Order?
Yes, for each order that is shown in your account area you are able to see the tracking number that is assigned to your delivery. You will also receive tracking number information in any delivery confirmation email.
Can I Have My Delivery Arrive Before 1pm The Next Day?
With an upgrade at checkout to Special Next Day Delivery, your in stock item(s) will be shipped the same working day and definitely arrive the next working day before 1pm. This method provides extensive postage insurance, detailed tracking information and a signature-on-receipt, and costs £5.00 extra.
I Am An International Customer. What Postage Options Do I Have?
We can ship to virtually any address in the world. We work with all of UPS, TNT, DHL and Royal Mail, and will choose the most appropriate delivery provider for the final destination address. Provision of tracking and signature-on-receipt will depend on the destination country and their customs officer policies. We work hard to secure our delivery network and ANCHOR & CREW delivers to Europe, USA and Australasia frequently.
For all EU orders, there are no extra import duties or taxes to pay. In accordance with new EU laws effective 1 July 2021, our checkout will charge your local EU country tax rate and all applicable taxes will be paid as part of your ANCHOR & CREW checkout process rather than at the time of importing your delivery.
For all non-EU international shipping addresses, taxes are not charged within your checkout and additional taxes may be required to be paid to import your delivery. Many countries have thresholds in which deliveries under their set values are tax and duty free. If you do not know your country's import thresholds, please check with your local authority for more information.
For all international shipping addresses, our International Courier Delivery service is entirely FREE if you spend over £51.00 on your order, or £5.00 as standard if less.
Do You Have Further Delivery Information?
Yes, please visit our delivery and returns for full information.
My Item Hasn't Arrived. What Do I Do?
Whilst we make every attempt to deliver orders within the expected delivery timescale, delays can happen. These delays are likely associated with the postal delivery service, and therefore please do allow up to an additional 48 hours for the delivery to arrive. If no delivery has been made, please contact us and we will investigate further.
What If I Am Not In When My Order Arrives?
If you're not in when local delivery is attempted, our chosen courier will then either attempt delivery with a neighbour or leave you a calling card detailing how you can rearrange delivery for another time.

Codes
Do You Offer Student Discounts?
