How to use the reserve function
If you'd like to purchase items from our site but want to save money on shipping costs, you can use our reserve function to combine your orders over an unlimited period of time, and ship them together for one combined shipping price when you are ready.
Just hit the 'reserve' button at the checkout page as your shipping option when you've finished making your order, and your order will automatically be held in reserve here until you are ready for us to ship everything to you.You can keep as many orders in reserve with us via our site as you like, until you are ready to ship. Just send us an email when you are ready to ship your reserve orders, and we will get in touch with the combined shipping price, or ship for free if you have exceeded the minimum order amount for free shipping to your address.
Can the reserve function be used to get free shipping? Yes - If your combined order total is more than £50 within the UK, over £150 within the EU, or over £225 worldwide, we'll ship your order to you via courier service, for free.
Here's a step by step guide to using it:
1. Click on the account icon to log into your account.
If you don't have an account, please click 'create account' to make one. If you had an account on the old RWDFWD site, please create a new one with the same email address used on the old site - this will ensure your previous orders are brought through to your new account.
2. Add records to your cart as normal.
3. When you're ready to check out, select 'ship'.
4. Then select 'Reserve items' on the shipping method list, then continue to payment.
5. Once payment is complete, your order will show in your account as 'unfulfilled'. We will have put all the products aside in reserve for you to combine with other orders and ship later in bulk.
6. When you're ready to ship all the items you have in reserve, email us on info@rwdfwd.com and we will calculate the shipping due and arrange for payment to be taken.
7. Sit tight and wait for your records to arrive in the post!

EU Order info
Unfortunately, the UK is no longer part of the EU - This means that certain shipments sent to addresses there from us may be subject to tax and / or import duty - All orders sent from RWDWD are sent ‘DDU’ - That is, duty unpaid - any import tax and/or duty is the sole responsibility of the buyer.
If you would like to use our reserve function to group several orders into one large shipment, we can arrange for it to be sent tax and duty pre-paid so you don’t have to worry about it at a later date - Contact us for more information.
Dug Out have struck gold once again, this time along reissuing a truly great LP from Leroy 'Mabrak' Mattis, who would learn his trade, for the first 20 years or so, on a butter pan (a big plastic bottle that butter would come in) and then in School was given a waste-paper container to perform with at School plays.
From winning awards at the National Junior Drumming competition on 1969, to finally getting his hands on the 'Talking Drum' at University, which is a drum that is recognised as one of the most masterful... A Drum that was used in West Africa to send messages from hilltop to hilltop.
Being a Kingston resident, music was never far away, indeed Tommy McCook happened to be his neighbour, Bim Sherman was a schoolfriend, and it wasn't too long before he ended up at King Tubby's, recording at Harry J's, and getting further recognition for his exceptional skills.
He impressed King Tubby with his unique interpretation of Harry J's 'Liquid Talk' version of Liquidator, by adding his Talking Drum sound from start to finish... Liquid Talk was born.
Around that time, Harry J's asked Leroy and his brother Bush Mabrak to compile the Drum Talk LP -
mixed by King Tubby and initially released on 'Jigsaw' around 1976, served only in a paper sleeve around, to which Dug Out have paid homage in usual representative style and fashion, with the lovely-looking new sleeve art that this edition comes housed in.
Also features a little History from Leroy 'Mabrak' Mattis along with a nice picture on the insert.
