Delivery Information
Delivery Choices
Depending on your location and the items bought you will be presented with several delivery options. We have narrowed down our wide range of options in the light of global events to leave only the most effective and reliable services for you.
Royal Mail, DPD & UPS handle 99% of our shipments.
Please bear in mind that COVID-19 is still having an impact on transit times and we cannot control this in most circumstances, and we appreciate your patience.
Instore Pick ups are available, just place your order online and contact us to book a pick up slot (with 48 hours notice). We'll then refund any delivery charge paid after you have picked up!
How will COVID-19 affect my deliveries?
It may take an extra day or two for us to dispatch in-stock items due to extra restrictions between moving goods between our sites.
It may take an extra day or two for the courier to deliver the items in some cases.
We have tried our very best to reflect these variables in our estimated delivery times.
If your item is needed within a specified timeframe please use our courier delivery options at checkout.
Feel free to get in touch if you have questions about delivery - contact@thechelseagamer.co.uk
How does Brexit affect my deliveries?
Unfortunately Brexit has had a massive impact on our business. We have done our best to negate the changes.
For Domestic orders
We have a policy of only selling items we hold in physical stock, And thus do not rely on supply chains to fulfil orders. (With the exception of furniture and other large items)
This ensures our delivery promises are realistic.
For International orders
Shipping times may be extended due to additional customs checks. Goods may be subject to VAT (sales tax), import taxes and fees in your country. Please check with your local customs agents for details.
Dispatch Times
We aim to dispatch on the same day, however this may take up to 48 hours in some cases.
We have collections from our couriers at Royal Mail, Parcel Force, DPD and UPS every working day and Royal Mail on Saturdays, we aim to be as quick as possible.
Orders placed online with us are usually processed the same day, all weekends and holidays orders are dealt with on the following working day.
Digitally fulfilled items usually take an hour or so to complete (although some items may take up to 24 hours).
Pre-Orders - Will be dispatched on the day before release day where possible.
Baskets containing lines that are out of stock (i.e Back Orders / Pre-Orders) and lines in stock. We wait until all items are in stock and dispatch together. So it's sensible to place a separate order for Pre / Back Orders and in stock items. (If you can not wait, and you have already placed your order then let us know and we will assist you)
PC systems are usually fulfilled in 10 - 15 working days.
When will I receive my order?
Our current delivery schedule takes into account delays caused by COVID-19 and Brexit.
We do try our best to exceed these estimates where possible. We always aim to dispatch as soon as possible.
Order Cut-off is currently at 7AM (Monday to Friday)
Standard delivery orders
We are currently advising 3-5 working days for delivery on standard orders.
Express Orders
We are currently advising 2-3 working days for delivery on express orders.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
