Applestump Records offer a number of delivery and collection options, you can choose your preferred delivery/collection method at the checkout.

​

In Stock Items

​​

Orders placed before 2pm will usually be shipped the same day, provided all items are in stock. 
Orders placed after 2pm will usually be shipped the following day, provided all items are in stock.
Orders placed after 2pm on a Friday, or over the weekend, will be shipped on Monday, provided all items are in stock.

We do our best to keep our stock levels up to date but there may be times when items sell out between you placing your order and us picking it. We will let you know as soon as we can if this is the case.

​

We also offer local pickup from our premises.
 

Out of Stock Items

 

Some items listed on our website are not kept in stock all the time and need to be ordered in from our suppliers, such as in the case of records marked 'online only', 'website exclusive' or 'online exclusive'. Although most of our distributors ship to us very quickly, they can take a little longer than the estimated time in busy periods (around Record Store Day, Christmas etc).

Your order will be shipped once all items are in stock. If you'd like one of your items shipped before the others please let us know in the comments, this will incur an additional delivery charge.

​

Pre-orders

​

New records are usually released on a Friday. Where we can we'll ship pre-orders on Thursday, so you have your order on the day of release, although this may not be possible in some circumstances. 
If you use the local pick up option, your order will be ready to collect on the day of release ie Friday.

As much as we'd like to, we're not allowed to let you pick up items before the release date.

Release dates can be subject to change. We'll update release dates on the site as soon as we know of any changes.

Pre-orders are shipped as and when they arrive. However, orders with multiple preorders arriving on different dates will be held until all items are available.
