WODI

There’s a new protective container on the market.

Pushing Dan yr Ogof

During the past two years there has been an upsurge of interest in the Dan yr Ogof system, with several cavers pushing new leads and tying up loose ends. This has resulted in the further exploration of Mazeways, Corbel’s Chamber and the Battle of Britain Series. Brian Murlis takes up the story.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR EU CUSTOMERS

On 1 July 2021 the EU removed all exemptions for tax and customs duty on low-value items posted from the UK to the EU, meaning that although VAT is 0% on books and magazines in the UK, it is charged within the EU and the VAT (potentially plus a handling fee) now applies to all orders to the EU.

All small publishers in the UK are now in the same position – we are unable to post any items to the EU with VAT or other duties paid.

When ordering any item from Stalactite Publishing, including a Descent subscription, you accept responsibility for paying the VAT and any other local charges on delivery.

Stalactite Publishing is not able to cover any charges levied by your country; it is your responsibility to accept these when placing an order.

We apologise for this situation, but please understand that it is outside our control.
