Shipping & Returns
Shipping Information
Goods are sent Mon-Fri via Royal Mail second class within the UK. We do require extra time to process and ship orders around Ramadan and both Eids as it is a busy period.
We now only ship to the following counties; UK, US, Canada, New Zealand, and Ireland.
Please view stockists for alternative retailers or distributors outside the UK.
International orders are dealt with individually, but we aim to use the quickest means possible. All orders are shipped as standard via Royal Mail Airmail Standard Service. This is not a trackable service. For urgent orders or for requests for a courier delivery, please email us prior to placing your order online.
- EU estimated delivery 8-20 working days
- NA estimated delivery 14-25 working days
- Rest of the World 3-4 weeks
Order Progress
if you are in the UK and have not received your item within 20 working days after placing your order please email admin(@)kubepublishing(.com)
If you're outside the UK and your books have not arrived within a reasonable delivery time you can inquire into the status of your order by e-mail to admin(@)kubepublishing(.com). Our office hours are Monday to Friday, 9am to 1pm.
Order Cancellation
A customer may cancel an order between placing the order and it being shipped. If the cancellation happens after the goods have been processed and despatched then a refund will not be offered until the goods have been returned. Original delivery costs in this case are non-refundable, as is the returns postage cost.
This does not apply to eBooks.
Import Duties
When we ship books outside the UK, the recipient is liable for any local taxes or import duties that may be payable. Kube can take no responsibility for this. If the goods are returned due to unpaid tax, the costs will not be refunded as the sale has been completed. Although the goods can be re-dispatched with only a further charge for dispatch at the customer’s request.
Postage
Our postage charges for both mainland UK and International deliveries are weight based set by current Royal Mail rates, plus a 50-90p charge for packaging. Please note we no longer ship worldwide.
Postage costs will be capped at £10 for 24kg of books for delivery within mainland UK. International delivery costs will vary.
If you order over £35 of books postage is FREE to an address in mainland UK.
Delays or Lost Orders
Royal Mail do not class items as lost until the following:-
1st class: 12 working days after the due date
2nd class: 16 working days after the due date
International Mail (Europe): 24 working days after the due date
International Mail (Rest of the World): 30 working days after the due date
We can only look into refunds or replacements until the items are classed as lost.

Please note: we don't offer refunds for eBooks as they are provided by a 3rd party system.
Pre-Orders
If an order contains both in-stock and pre-order items, it will be posted as soon as everything is available. This reduces delivery costs and our carbon footprint.
Customers who pre-order will have the option to cancel their order at any time before the book is released.
Please note: payment occurs when an order/pre-order is placed.
