Order items before the UK Postal Increases

Post by RWAP »

Following the announcement of the new UK postal rates from 30th April, I have done a quick calculation based on keyboard membranes, our most popular item.

For example, a packet (eg a large keyboard membrane) sent within the UK will see an increase in the postal cost from £1.96 to £2.70.
Sending the same packet to Europe, the price increases from £1.49 to £3.39 and to the rest of the World, from £2.07 to £5.10. :o

I can only therefore recommend that people consider if they want to order items before the prices increase !!

Our lowest membrane prices will remain on www.sellmyretro.com

It is indeed a danger - you have until 30th April when the prices go up.

I guess the prices are more in line with those charged by the US postal service....
