free postage guide

It's very simple to qualify for free postage. Just complete the following steps.

1. Place over £50 of eligible items in your basket.

2. Proceed to checkout.

3. Make sure your items are being delivered to a UK mainland address.

4. Select “send within 5 working days” or “send within 10 working days” as your delivery method.

5. Place your order.

You can add items to an existing order to bring it over the £50 mark, so long as your order hasn’t been dispatched. This can be done by proceeding through checkout as normal, and the additional items will be merged into your outstanding order automatically.

postage details

You can calculate your postage cost by using the tables below.

2xCD, 2xLP, etc are counted as 2 seperate items.

Box sets, magazines, T-shirts etc are weighed individually and converted to their equivalent weight in CDs. For example a magazine weighing 400g will be charged the same postage as 4x100g CDs.

We aim to keep our postage rates as low as possible by only just covering our costs - please refer to www.royalmail.com for a list of their price / weight charges.
