1. Ordering
Before you can place an order, you will need to register and then log in. Everyone is allowed one customer account, but you have to be 18 or over to do so. By signing up to our website, you agree to give:
Your real name
Your e-mail address
Your billing address
If the technology fails us or we make a genuine mistake, your order attempt may be unsuccessful. We will do everything we can to resolve this and aim to put that smile firmly back on your face. Once you have placed an order, you will receive a confirmation e-mail within 24 hours, and then one within 24 hours of your order being dispatched.
If something is not in stock, we will either let you know at the time of ordering or as soon after the order has been placed as possible.
2. Delivery
We have a variety of delivery options for customers in the UK.
Our Next Day (£6.95) and 48 hour (£4.95) options will be sent via courier. They will be delivered between 8am and 8pm and will require a signature. If you should miss our courier, they will leave a card with a number that can be called to arrange redelivery for a different day. If you choose 24hr or 48hr delivery, your items will not be delivered on Saturday or Sunday; you must order before 3pm on Wednesday for 48hr delivery or 3pm Thursday for 24hr if you need your Mambo products before the weekend. 24 and 48 hour delivery is unfortunately not available for all areas of the UK.

Standard delivery (£3.95) - If you select this option, parcels weighing less than 2kg will be sent with Royal Mail so keep your eyes peeled for your local postie! For larger orders (over 2kg), we will use a courier, which will require a signature upon delivery.
Delivery outside of the UK – Delivery charges will depend upon the destination and weight of the order.
