Combined Postage and Packing Costs
We endeavour to keep postage and packaging costs to a minimum however please be aware that due to the recent massive hike in postal costs by Royal Mail we have had to increase our postage costs. The new structure and price bands mean that although the increase is significant we now only charge a nominal fee on additional purchases of the vast majority of our items (Large/heavy items are excluded) UK only BUT the purchases do need to be paid for altogether on one invoice for the postage discounts to be applied.
For a guide on postage prices please visit the Royal Mail Website. http://www.royalmail.com
Items paid for seperately are shipped seperately and no discount can be applied.
