What if all the titles I order are not in stock?

During the checkout process you will be asked the question
"Do you want us to split your order for delivery?" 

If you choose No, your order will not be despatched until all of the items are in stock. 

If you choose Yes, then items are despatched as and when they come into stock, in one or more deliveries. 

All out of stock items will be placed on backorder. If you wish to cancel your backorder at any stage, please go to the 'Track My Order' section within the 'Your Account' area.

Special Delivery
If you have chosen one of the special delivery methods and have requested a split delivery, all subsequent deliveries will be sent out using the same delivery method as your first delivery.

If you wish to choose a different delivery method for each title, you must submit a separate order for each title, choosing a different delivery method.

Your statutory rights are not affected.
