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.
We've been eagerly awaiting this record here at RwdFwd, having heard the tracks some time ago.
I-Dentity and Freedom Cry are some of the most bold and striking tracks we've heard in a long time, serious social commentary from Rider Shafique, addressing important issues about race, inequality and the struggle for Black Identity in British society (although of course this is a universal issue).
It's a strong statement for a first record on the new Young Echo Records imprint, we stand behind it and hope that it finds the support that it deserves.
The full statement from Young Echo:
'Well, originally I am from my mothers womb'
'I-Dentity' is Rider Shafique's most important work to date, it will make it's mark with a striking sonic, pinned as the first release on the newly built Young Echo Records, the imprint soon to be launched by the 11-head-strong collective of musicians and artists.
Initially written for, and performed at Rider Shafique's tour of schools and community platforms across the UK, both 'I-Dentity' and 'Freedom Cry' are two utterly striking, and uncompromising word sound pieces.
Rider's hard and measured delivery serves as the lyrical baton for his personal, yet universal account of a topic many of us know, but not everyone fully understands or appreciates.
The first record on the Young Echo label will serve as a testament to a necessary political and social stance in this day and age, addressing boundaries that seem to have been ingrained, perhaps mutated but not necessarily changed, in this, in many ways ill-fated western society.
