Opening hours

Friday, December 28th, 2007

We will be processing orders over the Christmas break but unable to send until the 2nd January.
We will also be undertaking our annual stock take the first working week of January, so will not be able to respond as quickly as usual to emails and phone calls. We will address your enquiries as soon as possible.

Order Deadline Dates

Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

Please keep checking back for order deadline dates to ensure guaranteed delivery for Xmas.

Owing to huge demand we are limiting certain lines due to US import deadlines, so far we only have to impose this deadline date:

Vintage T-shirts: 5th December

Import T-shirts: 10th December (Any t-shirts with an IMPORT stamp on the image)

STOP PRESS:
DUE TO SUCH HIGH DEMAND WE CANNOT NOW GUARANTEE DELIVERY FOR CHRISTMAS EXCEPT FOR ITEMS IN OUR ‘LAST MINUTE STOCKING FILLERS’ RANGE.

Royal Mail strike action

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

From 4th-8th October 2007 the Royal Mail have announced industrial strike action. Postwatch have said that “effectively these strikes mean that mail posted in the UK today is unlikely to be delivered before Thursday next week”. This will obviously also delay orders posted after the end of the strike while any backlog is cleared.
Additionally all Guaranteed next day services such as Special Delivery are, well, no longer guaranteed so we cannot offer that service during this time.
We hope all 8Ball customers understand and can bear with us during this frankly annoying event, we’re really not very happy with the postman at the moment. And that’s putting it mildly.
