DELIVERY

How long ’til I get my order?

All Items

The below are standard timings, but please be aware mail services can have delays around the peak festive period.

Please note all days are business days. Timings are standard but may be longer at busy times.

The time to get your product to you depends how long it takes to make it & where you’re based.  See below for details by item and location.

I try to get your order to you as soon as possible. However please remember I’m not Amazon, nor can I control the mail services! I would love your order to arrive quickly, but once an order is shipped, it’s literally in the hands of the carrier provider. If you’d like it to arrive more quickly, mail providers usually prioritise their more expensive options first, so consider adding an upgrade.

Standard & Personalised Items

[Not including T shirts, mugs, bags & phone cases – see below]

Standard items: 1-3 days to send
Personalised items: 7-10 days to design & be professionally printed
Plus shipping times below:

-UK 2-4 days standard mail, 1-3 days 1st class options
-Europe 3-5 days
-US 5-10 days
-Rest of World 10-20 days

T-shirts, Mugs, Bags

Usually, it takes 3–7 days to make your order specially, after which it’s shipped out.

The delivery time on top of this production time depends on your location, but can be estimated as follows:

● Europe: 6–8 business days
● USA: 3–4 business days
● Canada 5-10 days
● Japan: 4–8 business days
● International: 10–20 business days

Some items can be upgraded to be sent more quickly, or sent with tracking. These upgrade options are displayed in the basket before checkout, when you enter your address details. Contact me if you’d like to add tracking or shipping upgrades that don’t appear.

Can I track my order?

For standard items, tracking isn’t included in UK mail. You can upgrade to 1st Class Signed for (UK) or add tracking (countries outside the UK).

T shirts/Mugs/ Bags/ Prints ship separately and come with tracking.
Note for Prints in the UK, unframed are sent 1st class (no tracking), framed are sent DHL (with signature).

For items or orders with tracking, the details will be included in your order dispatch email.

If you didn’t select 1st Class Signed for / with Delivery Confirmation (UK) or Add Tracking (countries outside the UK), or didn’t order a T shirt/ Mug/ Bag / Print, then we cannot track where your item is, and have to trust the mail providers to do their job to get it to you.

In times of increased demand, packages can get kept in sorting centres longer than before. The pending packages rarely get tracking updates about waiting in line, which may give the impression that they’re lost in transit.  They should still reach you, just may take longer.

Post & Packaging (aka P&P / Shipping)

For delivery timings, please see How long til I get my order? above.

You can see your P&P cost before you checkout.  P&P is added automatically, calculated on the weight of items ordered and the destination you’d like them sent to.  If you put in your country and postcode, and make changes to your basket, you will see the P&P adjust accordingly, before you checkout.

Delivery is worldwide, apart from areas in difficulties that carriers can’t reach. If your country isn’t covered at checkout, please get in touch.

Please note, tracking isn’t included automatically from the UK. You can opt for 1st Class with Delivery Confirmation (UK, this is Royal Mail’s ‘RM24’ service) or to add tracking (countries outside the UK).

Please get in touch if you need an item more urgently, and would like to upgrade your postage beyond the options displayed.

Why isn’t P&P free?

I know as a fellow consumer, it can feel annoying to pay P&P. The reality as a small business owner is that it is a very real cost, which is very much 2 ‘Ps’.

Larger companies have the scale to receive lower postage and packaging costs, which is why we as consumers are used to low or free P&P. Please understand this is a real cost which may well be less than the time and travel costs to get to a physical shop, and enables your order to be lovingly prepared and sent, to arrive in your home.

For small business, on the packaging ‘P’, this involves buying large quantities of different size envelopes and packaging to post your items safe, along with extras to pack them all up.  On the postage ‘P’, costs are going up all the time.  Costs are often rounded which helps deal with frequent postage price rises.

Will I be charged customs for my order?

An additional customs and tax fee can occur on international orders. This fee is not in my control and is assessed by your local customs office.

Many items are sent from different locations, so if you are particularly concerned, please get in touch to find out where your order will be shipped from.

Customs policies vary widely for every country so please check with your local customs office directly to see if they apply duties and taxes to your purchases.

Can I get my order quicker?

In short, usually yes, but it will be an additional shipping cost.

You can place your order and we’ll add the upgrade after.

Please contact me and I’ll let you know the current timings and cost, depending on your item, where you’d like it sent, and how quickly you need it.

‘Sorry it’s late’ gift message download

If very disappointingly, your order doesn’t arrive in time for when you need it, I have a gift message you can print out or email. You can download as PDF or JPEG. I am very sorry if it’s late and hope this is a small help.

Basket says ‘no shipping options available’?

Apologies if you are getting the message ‘no shipping options available’.  Art Of Your Success offers a wide range of shipping options and sometimes errors occur. 

Please check you’ve entered both your country & post/ zip code.  If it still doesn’t work, please send a screenshot of your basket here. Please ensure the screenshot includes all items, their quantities and the country you’d like it delivered to.

We will resolve as quickly as possible, and your basket should still be waiting for when the fix has been made.


REFUNDS & RETURNS

Refunds and returns policy

I offer a 10 day full refund for return policy for items that are not made to order (T shirts, mugs, bags, phone cases) or custom. If you are unhappy with your purchase for any reason, please contact me within 10 days of receiving it.

Please be aware that I cannot accept returns of made to order (T shirts, mugs, bags, phone cases) or custom items, unless they are faulty. This includes T shirts which are made to order and cannot be returned if you’ve chosen the wrong size.

Why can’t I return made to order items?
T shirts, mugs, bags, and phone cases are made to order to reduce waste by producing only what is needed. A T shirt size exchange would mean producing an entirely new product. Made to order also means you have a wider choice of designs and colours than if all stock was held. If your item has unusually got through quality control checks when it is faulty, please contact me with photos within 10 days and I will arrange a replacement or refund.

For any other (non-custom) orders, when you have safely returned the item in original condition, I will refund the full price on receiving it back. You will need to cover return postage.

I cannot accept responsibility for repaying postage and handling charges.

I want you to be happy with your order, and I will do whatever I can to work with you to sort out any issues.

My order hasn’t arrived but I’ve received other post / did you send it?

Your item is only marked as sent, sending you a dispatch email once it is physically out of our hands and in the post system.

I share your frustration, as we work hard to send items quickly, and pay Royal Mail to deliver them, it costs us time and money when they don’t do their part, and I want you to have what you ordered.

I know it seems odd that you have other orders that have arrived. From years sending thousands of  items, I’ve learned even if my delivery office seems good (which it does!) and your deliveries seem good, post all goes via different routes and a lot can happen on the way, and it can vary over time. 

In times of strikes, some post can get through quickly, but a lot gets held up. It’s unpredictable and uncontrollable.

My order hasn’t arrived. What should I do?

Before getting in touch, please help me out by doing the following:
● Check your shipping confirmation email for any mistakes in the delivery address
● Check with your neighbours in case the package was left with them

If the shipping address was correct, and the package wasn’t left at the post office or at your neighbour’s, please email.

If you did find a mistake in your delivery address, I can send you a replacement order, but at your own replacement cost.

I received a wrong/damaged product, what should I do?

I’m so sorry if the product you ordered arrived damaged. To help resolve this for you quickly, please email within 10 days with photos of the wrong / damaged product, your order number, and any other details you may have about your order. I’ll get back to you with a resolution as soon as possible!


ORDERING, PRIVACY & SECURITY

What are the payment methods & security?

Secure payment is handled through Paypal or credit card processing (you choose your preferred method at checkout).

Art Of Your Success does not see or hold your payment details.

Do I need an account?

No you don’t need to create an account with Art Of Your Success to check out.

But you can have one if you like! The advantages of having an account are that you can see your current and past orders. It also stores your address details for future orders, so that’s automatically filled in at checkout. These details won’t be passed on anywhere else.

You can create an account when you’re checking out.

Are my details safe/ what’s your privacy policy?

Yes Art Of Your Success has secure systems and processes to protect your data. You can read the full privacy policy here.


PRODUCTS & DESIGN

Where are the items made?

For most items, they are made in and sent from, the UK.
This includes multifunctional headwear, which is why they are higher quality than similar-looking items you may have seen from China.

For T shirts, mugs, bags and phone cases and some other items, I work with companies with locations worldwide, so depending on where you are, your orders are made and sent from the facility that can do it most efficiently.

Enamel pins are made in China.

If you have a specific question not covered here, please contact me for more information.

Can you design something for me?

I design custom work for individuals, clubs and events.

You can see some of my previous commissioned work, and useful things to know, on my Custom page.

Please  email or send me a message via the contact form with your idea (including the quantity you need), and I’ll get back to you on details.

Story

See the story of how ArtOfYourSuccess was created and behind the scenes here.

Values, including Environment

Perspiration

ArtOfYourSuccess celebrates the effort you make in your training and racing.  It’s not about comparing times, but it is about putting in the work.

Dedication

Whether it’s graduating couch to 5k, getting a time or making a family member proud, ArtOfYourSuccess is all about celebrating goals.  Shut out what others are doing, go get what’s meaningful to you and celebrate it.

Motivation

Lots of recent research show smiling can reduce your perceived workout effort. Art Of Your Success products aim to bring a smile to your training and events. Whether that’s through observations and slogans that make you laugh, or a design that just makes you smile

Inspiration

Art Of Your Success aims to bring you original products and ideas.  All thought of by Sarah while running or cycling. If you see something somewhere else, hopefully it’s just because someone has had the same idea, because copying is not cool.

Environment

With a previous career working for UK Government on environmental issues, particularly International Climate Change, not surprisingly I have been keen to ensure the eco aspects of Art Of Your Success

Products are made to order or made in small batches from sustainable sources, so only what is needed is produced.

Cards are sent ‘naked’ where possible, to cut down on plastic and other packaging. International orders may be sent with the card in a recyclable plastic bag for extra protection.
