Please note:

You can combine purchases to minimise postage costs. 

• 1-9 eligible items - single charge 
• 10+ eligible items - postage is free. 

If purchasing more than one item, please DO NOT PAY FOR ITEMS SEPARATELY as ebay will charge you postage on every single item. 

Instead, add your choices to the shopping cart (use "add to cart").

When you have finished shopping you can view your cart to finalise and pay for the lot at checkout, when your purchases will be automatically combined with the correct postage cost (if any).
