How much do I charge for postage and packaging?
We recommend that you use Royal Mail, information on costs can be found at www.royalmail.com When sending expensive items you may want to consider sending items special delivery. If a signature will be required by a customer they will need to be informed of the estimated delivery time and date.
When sending large quantity of items we recommend you obtain prices from local couriers as this may work out more cost efaective.
Don't forget to include your packaging costs, make sure items are well packed to avoid costly damages and digruntled customers!
Try to use environmentaly friendly packaging whenever possible, even better, reuse packaging you have received items in!
