Chaps,

Just a swift warning, expect postal prices across the UK to rise around April 30th.

I've not seen the package prices yet - but I'm already wincing. Seeing as the UK has just emerged from a recession, it's not the best of news for the country.

Seen the package prices... It'll be £5.30 for a standard package at 2kg UK Mail.

I shudder to consider overseas mail.

International postage is the only regret I have about living in Australia...

You might want to check out the small packet (snigger!) prices as well. As I understand it, from 2nd April, there will only be a 0-750g category, not the 0-100, 100-200, etc categories, and all at the higher prices!

Jeez, previously in the UK we had 0-250, 0-500, etc, with a lower level of granularity for international orders.

I suggest making your EW orders prior to April 30th, once the price rise comes into effect we may have to up our postage rates.

We only accept payment by card now. We had a few incidents of customers abusing the system using Paypal. As a result we stopped using it.
