The following postal charges are for both single item or multiple purchases which are combined.
U.K. PURCHASES VALUED AT £50 OR MORE MUST BE SHIPPED BY RECORDED DELIVERY.
ALL PURCHASES VALUED AT £100 OR MORE MUST BE SHIPPED BY REGISTERED DELIVERY OR ON AGREEMENT SENT AS MULTIPLE SMALLER SHIPMENTS.
International
Europe standard air mail: £2.10
Rest of World standard air mail: £2.85
Signed for / Insured: £10.00 [for shipments exceeding £60 in value]
Signed for / Insured: £7 [for shipments less than £60 in value]
Options for International signed for and tracking services with insurance vary according to availability of shipping services offered by Royal Mail to a particular country and whether a tracking service is available to, for example, a P.O. Box. International signed for and insured services include International 'Tracked and signed'; International 'Tracked' only and International 'Signed' only. All the different options cost about the same. Therefore I select the optimum service to the destination according to availability of service.

Specific conditions
Hoatzinstamps aims to offer a fast, reliable, friendly and no quibble service.
Hoatzinstamps is well aware of the importance of quality, service, packaging and price. I aim to provide a range of material, used and mint, low and high value, individual stamps and sets, postcards and Covers --- but predominately British Commonwealth. I try to cater for the needs of the small collector with modest income as well as anyone with deep pockets!
Your purchases will always be shipped securely and usually within one working day of payment, so if you havent received your purchase within 7 days (UK) or 14 days (Overseas) please let me know. Most UK shipments will be received next day if payment is received overnight or in the morning.
I keep postage charges as simple as possible. Please check the 'Shipping and Handling' tab on the listing for information on these charges.
I do not make additional charges for using PAYPAL.
I try hard to ensure that the stamps offered are properly described but from time to time I do make mistakes. I offer a no quibble refund policy so if you are unhappy for any reason let me know and I will endeavour to resolve the issue with you to your satisfaction.
The price of low value items (less than £1) may seem a little high but this is due to the fact that I need to offset the item charge levied by Delcampe on each sale.
Enjoy your collecting.
