I always try to charge the correct postage I do not look to profit from postage
Posting is expensive -  where possible I go for 1st class Royal mail to get items there faster
I have and do refund any excessive posted charges if I get it wrong

Sometimes with large items I will try other couriers to try to get the posting cheaper.

When I am posting delicate items I prefer special delivery as this may be slightly more 
but safer and quick.

Please note I do not normally post overseas, this is  due to the costs to the buyer

can be very expensive if heavy

Please ask if you wish me to consider as I would need to recalculate.

If there is a problem please contact me via message 

I always leave feedback when I have received feedback 

Thank you for looking
