When to order

Korean shops: delivery to the UK can take one to three weeks, so order by late November to be safe.
UK shops: usually a few working days, but order by mid-December to beat the Christmas rush.
Buying several gifts? Add them to the basket to see which shop is cheapest for the whole order, including delivery.
