Whatever you order from Ideal World, items will usually be dispatched within 3-5 working days, while most deliveries will require a signature.
If you know you will not be in, and your order qualifies, you may be able to provide special instructions for drivers to leave your purchases with a neighbour or in a safe place. Alternatively, you can specify a different delivery address and have it sent to your place of work or a friend or relative's house.
You can also track your order by logging into your account and clicking 'Order History'. You will see delivery costs on the individual product pages and this will update automatically within your basket as you continue adding items to it.
