(It does take time and is better when there are a few together to add…)   POSTAGE (OR SHIPPING) PRICES My individual postage charges include about £2 so that I can pay for help to send all orders quickly and recover a little on bought in packaging. Consolidated shipments of several items to one UK business address are less expensive – please ask. Overseas I am pleased to quote a shipping cost for Royal Mail Airmail/Airsure Services, I guide buyers to look at www.royalmail.com and follow the pricing route to estimate costs. For my pewter I find that I add 50-70% - depending on size and on how the piece needs protecting - to the weight of the piece for packaging materials (and I usually quote the piece weight in the eBay copy so I can calculate shipping more easily) So if it weighs 500gms I look at the 750 gm rate or next band 1 kilo rate depending on what needs good protection. This is mentioned here so you can try it for yourself - but I am always pleased to quote - a firm price. And I am happy to work with anyone who can do it better at their own risk, through their own contacts.   Place a Bid!
