8. Where do I send my Cheque or Postal Order to?
Please visit our 'contact' for our full name and address

9. Do you ship outside the UK? Yes we do, please contact us via email for a quotation

10. Can I use Lemax for my hobby train scenery?
Yes you can! In fact, using Lemax this way makes excellent value for money!   Hornby trains will look too small against Lemax figures, so be careful if scale is of utmost importance!

11. The item I want is 'OUT OF STOCK'?
The nature of Lemax being a seasonal hobby in the UK means, any products 'out of stock' after 31st December, will generally not be available until the following Christmas season. However, before the 31st, we may be able to purchase surplus stock from our suppliers - it's a long shot, but well worth contacting us so we can try for you. Also, 'out of stock' items could simply mean we have pending orders that may or may not be finalised, so get in touch with us and we can let you know the outcome and whether we can obtain that special Lemax piece for you

12. Why am I diverted to voicemail when I telephone?
During peak periods (normally end of November and December) we are busy wrapping parcels and we are not able to offer a manned telephone. However, leave us a message and we will call you back within 24hrs. If you don't hear from us, please send us an email, just in case! During out of season periods, we do not operate a full telephone service during working hours (voicemail only). Normally this period covers February to mid September.

13. What do 'seconds' mean in your shop?
We always inspect and test all our Lemax goods before despatch. Any that we feel do not meet our high standards are sold as a 'second' at huge reductions. Sometimes this could be a misplaced window in a building or a broken arm on a figure that can easily be glued. These items are simply imperfect and we couldn't bear to throw them away! All seconds are sold as seen and we make every effort to show photos and give accurate and honest opinions on their appearance.

14. Do you have a showroom or retail shop I can visit?
We do not have a showroom or retail shop for you to visit, but this is how we keep our costs down in providing the widest range of Lemax products for you in our online store at the lowest prices. We do however, take real life photos of products that may help with your decision making in your village display, so do email us and we will be happy to help you.

15. Where else can I buy Lemax products?
Unfortunately, this can be difficult to know. We are not connected, affiliated with or part of Lemax Company, so we rely on word of mouth from customers where Lemax is sold which often depends where you are based locally.
