More precise information can be given to the Customer by telephone and email. The unavailability of a product is mentioned on the product page concerned or in the shopping basket summary. Thus, Products may appear with the mention of delivery times, such as "in stock" or "immediate", "4 to 8 days", "1 to 2 week", "4 to 6 weeks", "Product not available" etc.​Delivery times indicated in the product page details are estimated times when the product(s) are not available in Birdsn'Bees stocks.
