Can I cancel my order?

If you have not yet received a despatch email, you can cancel your order by emailing enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk. Please mark your email ‘Order Cancellation’ and include your order number. If your order has not been despatched, you will receive a full refund. Shopify say this takes between 3-5 business days, but we have had feedback that it is usually much quicker than that. If your order

Can I change my delivery address?

If you have not yet received a despatch email, you can change your delivery address by emailing enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk. Please mark your email ‘Address Change’ and include your order number and new address.

Why doesn’t my tracking link work?

Please check that you chose ‘Tracked Shipping’ at the checkout. If you chose Standard Shipping, we are unable to track your order, and the number included in your despatch email is for reference only. If you chose Tracked Shipping, Royal Mail links can take up to 48 hours to update. If it still isn’t working after 48 hours, please email enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk, including your order number, and we will look into it for you.

Why does my Royal Mail Tracking say, ‘ we are expecting it’?

When you receive an email from us saying your order has been despatched, that means your parcel has been collected from us by Royal Mail and is in their system. Their tracking sometimes takes a while to be updated, and can occasionally say, ‘we are expecting it’, for several days after they have collected it. Should this status not change after a week or so, please contact us at enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk and let us know, and please include your order number.

Why hasn’t my order been shipped yet?

If an order includes a pre-order title, it will be held until all titles included are released, and then ship everything together. We are unable to separate orders, but if you would like to cancel your order and place two separate orders, please email april@secondsightfilms.co.uk and mark your email ‘Order Cancellation’ and include your order number. If your order has not been despatched, you will receive a full refund. Shopify say this takes between 3-5 business days, but we have had feedback that it is usually much quicker than that. If your order

Can I add to my order, or cancel part of it?

I'm afraid there is no way for us to add to existing orders as we are unable to increase the charge to your payment method from our end. We are also unable to cancel and refund part of an order. However,you can cancel your existing order and place a new one, but please note that we cannot guarantee the items in your original order will stay in stock. If you would like to do this, please email april@secondsightfilms.co.uk and mark your email ‘Order Cancellation’ and include your order number. If your order has not been despatched, you will receive a full refund. Shopify say this takes between 3-5 business days, but we have had feedback that it is usually much quicker than that.

Can I combine orders?

I'm afraid there is no way for us to combine existing orders. However, you can cancel existing orders to place a new one, but please be aware we can’t guarantee the items in your original order will stay in stock. If you would like to do this, please email april@secondsightfilms.co.uk and mark your email ‘Order Cancellation’ and include your order number. If your order has not been despatched, you will receive a full refund. Shopify say this takes between 3-5 business days, but we have had feedback that it is usually much quicker than that.

While waiting for my pre order title, another title I ordered has gone out of print – will I still get it?

When you order from us, everything in your order is allocated to you and set aside, so if a title goes out of print when you are waiting for an order, your copy is secure and will be sent when all pre-orders in your order are released.

Why didn’t I get an email confirmation of order or despatch?

Sometimes dispatch and confirmation emails go into junk folders, so they may be there. If they aren’t there, please contact enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk, and include your name and postcode, and we will check your order status and get back to you.

What do I do if my order has been despatched but I no longer want it?

Please refuse delivery, and the parcel should be returned to us at no cost to you. If you have already received your order, please see our returns information below.

Can I return my order?

To return your product, please send it to Lime Wood Media Ltd, Unit 9, Oakhanger Farm, Oakhanger Road, Oakhanger, Bordon, GU35 9JA, making sure your name and order number are included.

You will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item which are non-refundable. We advise you choose tracked shipping when returning items.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging. When we’ve received and checked it, we will contact you issue a refund. Shopify say refunds take between 3-5 business days but we have had feedback that it is usually much quicker than that.

If you need any more information about this process, please email enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk

My order arrived damaged, what do I do?

We do our very best with packing our orders but occasionally damage can occur in transit, and we do apologise if this has happened with your order. Please email enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk with a photo of the damage, and we can send you a replacement for the damaged parts.

I ordered one of your titles from another retailer, and it arrived damaged, can you help?

If you order from us, we take a lot of care over packing and checking our orders before they go out but occasionally things get damaged, and if that happens we are happy to send out a replacement outer box.

However, if you order from another retailer we can send out replacement boxes if we have some spares but we have to charge postage and packing.

Please email enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk with your address, the film title and which parts are damaged and we can check if we have spares. If we do, we’ll let you know, and raise a PayPal invoice. To send to addresses in the UK costs £6.00, EU £8.00, USA £16.00, elsewhere £10.00.

Are you part of IOSS?

When you order from us, the VAT is paid up to an order amount of 150 Euro. However, there may possibly be other import charges which are beyond our control as they are set by the customs authority of the destination country.

If VAT is not payable in your country, UK VAT at a rate of 20% will be deducted from the goods cost your order.

If your order is over 150 Euro, VAT is deducted, and you will be charged at the relevant rate when your parcel arrives locally. Please note that this may incur additional administrative fees which we are unable to reimburse.

I’ve missed out on a title that is now Out of Print, will there be any more?

Our Limited Editons stay limited, and we do not make more than our initial run.

However, there is always a chance (that has happened with other releases) that we do find additional stock which we then put up for sale. If that happens, we also announce it on our social media accounts, though they tend to sell very quickly.

We usually have Standard Editions available. If you don’t see what you are looking for, please email enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk and we can let you know if a date is set for a Standard Edition release.

Do you have a mailing list?

Yes, you can join our mailing list by going to our home page, (www.secondsightfilms.co.uk), scrolling down and entering your details. We also make announcements on our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages, links below;

Will your releases play outside of the UK?

Some of our titles are listed as ‘region free’ which means they should play anywhere. However many are region coded so will not play in outside of the UK, unless you have a region free blu-ray player.

We have several 4K / UHD releases which is a format that is not region coded, and they require a 4K / UHD player to play.

If you aren’t sure from looking at our site, please email enquiries@secondsightfilms.co.uk and let us know which title is of interest.

Can I get an invoice for my order?

I’m afraid we don’t supply invoices for retail customers.
