- your browser must support a minimum of 128 bit SSL encryption to use our secure checkout process
A supported browser "out-of-the-box" should already be configured in a way that permits you to place an order from our site.
Your basket is stored in cookies, so clearing cookies will remove all the items from your basket. Using a different computer, browser, or computer user account will cause you to create and use a different basket. As a result, you may see different items in your basket when using a different computer or browser.
