FOR THE ATTENTION OF U.S.A. BUYERS - CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING ON MULTIPLE OR LARGE ITEMS
Due to the changes initiated by President Trump, mail going to the USA may be subject to the imposition of UK Export Duty and a handling fee for the Post Office. There may also be an Import Duty to pay as well.
My understanding is that this tax is applied to any large letter or parcel, irrespective of value.
Items that are thin, eg. Postcards will be fine, and up to 4 in a small letter will go through as standard, prices below. The problem comes with heavier items and those that exceed the £20 compensation level. In this case it might be better to split the purchases and send multiple letters.
My preferred payment method is
MANGOPAY / MARKETPLACE
Paypal is also accepted
