Contacting An Siopa Leabhar

If you have any queries about an order or you would like to contact us for any reason, please see the contact page.


Postage and delivery

Orders are sent via An Post, and are usually delivered 2-14 working days following placement of an order, depending on the order destination.

In cases where we do not have an item in stock in the store, we will need to order it so that we may fulfill your order. This can cause a slight delay to your order. If a product is no longer available at all, every effort will be made to contact the customer to pass on this information and to offer a refund.

Orders are not fulfilled outside of the shop’s usual opening hours. In the event that the shop is closed for a day or a number of days, notice will be given on the shop’s social media accounts and information will be given as to when the shop is expected to reopen.

When the office is closed for more than two working days, an announcement to this effect is normally placed on our website, stating the date on which orders will next be dispatched.

Shipping (postage) costs

Shipping (postage) costs are calculated based on the delivery destination and weight of goods being purchased. Some items may have a specific postal rate due to their shape or size, irrespective of weight, as we follow An Post’s guidelines for parcel measurements.

Pricing and availability of goods

Whilst every effort is made to ensure accuracy of prices and availability of the titles featured on this Site, this cannot be guaranteed and price and availability information may change without notice. By making a request/order you are offering to purchase a product which we will accept to sell to you on the following Terms and Conditions. All requests are subject to availability and confirmation of the order price by us.

Dispatch times may vary according to availability. We are not responsible for any delay in delivery occurring due to postal delays or force majeure. An Siopa Leabhar is entitled to refuse any request made by you. When making a request, you undertake that all details you provide to us requesting goods or services are true and accurate, that you are an authorised user of the credit card used to make your request and that there are sufficient funds available to cover the cost of the goods or services.

It is your responsibility to inform us of any changes to these details as soon as possible.

Cancellations and Returns Policy

Orders may be cancelled by contacting An Siopa Leabhar as soon as possible following the placement of the order. If an order has been sent in the post already, a cancellation may not be possible, instead items will need to be returned to An Siopa Leabhar for a refund on the items.

Please note that once parcels have been sent in the post, any refund given will be for goods returned only. Please also note that, at times, we may have an order ready for the post in a matter of minutes, particularly if it is placed just before the postal collection goes out.

The product must be in its original condition and include all original packaging materials and labels. The returns must include information stating the customer order number as proof of purchase. We cannot accept the return of used or damaged goods. The customer is responsible for the cost of returning the goods.
