Contacting Us

Email: We far prefer emailed enquiries!  Once you have looked through our site and are sure you can't find the answer to your question online, send your message to office@goldstarstockists.net - please use a subject and sign your name at the end of your message as otherwise your email may not be received.  
We reply to all emails promptly but sometimes there might be a delay if we have to check something out, so please be patient as even at the busiest times you'll usually have a reply within one day at most.

By Fax: Our number is FAX: 01620 850950 (Intl: +44 1620 850950). We welcome faxed orders & enquiries - please as much information as you can with regard to the query. 
This is often the quickest way to enquire about something as we can very quickly write the reply and fax it back to you!

Telephone: Our phone number is 01620 850728.   The phone is answered 10:30 am to 4:00 pm Monday to Friday. If you hear a recorded message during hours when we would usually be open, please allow a few minutes before calling back. Emailed queries will usually be answered outside of these hours.

Please note: ONLINE orders are quicker for us to process and dispatch, so if you are in a hurry, please order online to get the best chance of your item being sent out ASAP.

VERY IMPORTANT: Product and technical enquiries?  Please EMAIL, since telephone is not always manned by technical staff and you will likely be asked to put your question in an email so that a concise and correct answer can be given.

QUERYING YOUR ORDER: In the first instance, and whereever possible, please simply reply to any email order confirmation you have received with any query.

PLACING AN ORDER: Orders can be placed by telephone during the hours of 10:30 until 4:00, Monday to Friday.

 
By Royal Mail: You can write to us, but this is by far the slowest way of getting a reply.  Our address is Time Tunnel Models, Unit 3, Fenton Barns Retail Village, North Berwick, EH39 5BW.  Please note that we do not send out "lists" as all our lists are already on this website.

Our shop is open during the following hours.  Outside of these hours, telephones will not be answered but we may be able to answer emails.

MONDAY TO FRIDAY: 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM
We are closed over the weekend.

Collection of orders can sometimes be arranged outside of these hours by prior appointment. 

• Allow time for the great British Post Office: If you have been charged and it's more than a few days previously, allowing for weekends when no deliveries occur, PLEASE check your post box thoroughly for Post Office, Parcelforce or Courier "We tried to deliver but you were out" cards.  They often get caught up in junk mail and free local newspapers. Also, please ask your immediate neighbours if they have taken a parcel in for you before contacting us.   We are finding that 95% of "missing" packages are actually waiting either next door or at the sorting office / courier depot.
   
• Give us the details we need to look into it: We can track most larger items (heavier items and majority of packages over £50) quite quickly and advise where they are.  Please reply to your order confirmation email as it is quicker than phoning.  If you phone, we will take your details and have to phone you back.  This is because for security reasons, tracking information is not usually stored on our shop premises.
   
• VERY Occasionally Things Get Lost: Where items are lost by the postal service, we must let the Post Office investigate the loss before any further action can be taken.
