Out of stock items ('Back Orders')

When browsing our full catalogue range you may find an item that is currently out of stock. In order to overcome this we provide the facility to place the item on Back Order. We will reserve this item on your behalf so when the product is back in stock we can automatically process the order and despatch the product to you.

Will I get charged when I place the order?
Items placed on Back Order may be charged for upon confirming your order. You may cancel a back order - please contact Maplin Customer Services on 0870 429 6000.

What happens if some items are in stock and I back order other items?
When you place the order all the items available for despatch will be sent immediately. Outstanding products on back order will be despatched as soon as all the remaining items are in stock, to complete the order in one parcel.

Will I be charged carriage on Back Orders?
On the UK mainland, you will be charged only once per order for carriage. This charge will be levied against the first shipment of goods. Outside the UK, should further export carriage costs be required we will contact you before despatch.

If I have items on back order which are part of a buy 1 get 1 free offer or a bundle, do I still get the saving?
Offers of this nature (i.e. buy 1 get 1 free, buy 2 get 1 free, motherboard bundles etc) only apply when all of the items are in stock.

If you are unsure about your back order telephone our Customer Service team on 0870 429 6000, or send us an email.
