Welcome to the BeebShop!
BeebMaster's Birthday Sale
To celebrate five years of BeebMaster, all items ordered from the BeebShop during May 2008 will receive a 5% discount!
To take advantage of this exciting offer, please take a look at the items available and then send me a message to Enquiries@BeebShop.co.uk to let me know what you would like to order, and I will get back to you with the total after the discount.
Please note that the instant payment buttons below will not include the BeebMaster Birthday Discount, I'm not clever enough to make them do that, so if you want some money off, I'm afraid you'll have to write in!

Ordering from the BeebShop couldn't be simpler! In fact, I've tried to make the whole process so painless that it's a wonder other websites aren't making it this easy too! You don't have to register with me, or subscribe to any monthly newsletters and you don't even have to tell me a whole load of personal information and half of your life history! Let's face it, you don't want to tell me and I don't want to know, so let's skip all that guff and go straight to the Buying bit so everyone's happy! Yep, all you have to do to buy from the BeebShop is click on the "Put in my BeebBasket" button next to most of the items and then you will be shown the contents of your BeebBasket using a secure Paypal shopping screen. You can then opt to carry on shopping or pay for the items you have chosen via Paypal. At any time, you can click on the "Look in My BeebBasket" button at the top of this page to see the items you are currently buying, and change quantities or remove anything you don't want. If there is no "Put in my BeebBasket" button or you have an enquiry about an item, just drop me a quick line to Enquiries@BeebShop.co.uk and I'll get back to you with the price including postage and payment methods you can use. That's all there is to it! Did I mention that you don't have to register or subscribe for anything or subject yourself to receiving oodles of junk mail from me or buy things you don't want because of a minimum order level or tell me your telephone number or date of birth or annual income? I will ship most items worldwide but heavy or bulky items including BBC Master computers, printers, second hand floppy disc drives and monitors are only available in the United Kingdom. All prices above exclude postage and packing. Small items will be sent by First Class Post and parcels will be sent by Royal Mail Standard Parcels or courier.
