About Us Engale Marketing began life in the early 1980s as the publisher of the Official Gerry Anderson fan magazine S.i.G. Husband and wife team Yvonne and David Nightingale's small publishing house took over the publishing chores when David's partnership with S.i.G. co-creator Brendan Sheehan came to an end.

Soon the company was branching out into licensed merchandise based on Gerry Anderson's various TV series - calendars, postcards, sew-on patches and posters. In 1986 a small shop was opened in Blackpool, Lancashire, called Thunderbooks Gerry Anderson was by now a personal friend of Yvonne and David so who else to perform the opening ceremony than the man himself ! The next year the Blackpool shop moved to its present, larger, premises on Lytham Road

In 1988 a second shop was opened in the nearby inland University town of Preston. Called Thunderbooks II, Gerry Anderson was once again on hand in July of that year to cut the celebratory tape. The shop was renamed Star Trader in 1998 but passed into independent ownership in December 2006

Making A Purchase Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our Catalog, and click on any items that you wish to buy and put them into the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click on "Order" and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to satisfy the order.

We accept credit card payment. If you are shopping from overseas, place your order and your credit card company will convert the transaction to your own currency when you receive your Statement.

We accept Visa and Mastercard, sadly no longer American Express. We do not charge for any item until it is ready to ship.

If you do not have credit card facilities then you can print out your Order Form and mail it to us with payment. If you know someone with a credit card then you can get them to place the order for you. Please be aware, though, that THEY become our customer and we have to mail goods to them at their address. You have to arrange to retrieve the goods and pay for them with your "proxy".

For further information please click the "How To Buy" button on the main Star Trader site.

Shipping And Handling In the U.K. items are sent either second or first class mail or Parcel Post. The latter is a three-day delivery service (not guaranteed) once the item has been collected by Parcel Force from our premises (usually once a week on a Tuesday). Overseas items go by Air - either as Small Packet, Printed Paper or Parcel. The difference now between Air and Surface freight is marginal and not worth the cost saving over the time delay.
Delivery Schedule We mail out twice a week - usually Wednesdays and Fridays but this may change to a more regular frequency in the near future.
Back Orders Occasionally an item may not be in stock at the time your order arrives. If it is not going to delay things too long we will wait until we can complete the entire order before shipping. If we think the delay will be more than a few days we will Back Order the item and send it when we get it. Your Invoice accompanying the items we send at the start will indicate which items, if any, have been Back Ordered.
Tax Charges All prices for goods on our Site include (where applicable) Value Added Tax at 17.5%,
Credit Card Security We know of no documented cases of credit card fraud using our shopping system over the Internet. All credit card numbers are encrypted in the software when the order is placed using 128 bit encryption. They are only decrypted after they reach our computer. They are not held in clear text on any web site. If you have any doubts at all about security then choose the "Invoice and Payment Before Delivery" option from the "Payment Methods" drop-down options - this is as opposed to Credit Card. Your order will be sent to us and we will then contact you for credit card details.
Guarantee There is important information you should know before ordering - PLEASE read our "Important Information" text which is accessible from the appropriate button on the main Star Trader site.
