IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING POSTAGE & PACKING CHARGES - 

EBAY changed their policy around 12 months ago, and unfortunately they now charge commission on 
Postage & Packing charges. For some time now, I have included these charges in the bid/purchase price 
on most items. In order to offer a 'free' postage service, I request that customers share the risk if selecting 
Standard post 

For this item, the default postage service is set for 'Standard Post', and stamps are sent entirely at the buyers risk. 
This is suitable for items less than £20. If you choose this service, should your item get lost, please don't blame or 
claim against me. You have the choice of a more secure service at purchase, so please stand by that. 
If you are unfortunate and an item does go missing, if required, I can send you the Proof of Posting 
and a Claims Form. 

However if you select one of the more secure services, such as the Signed-For or Special Delivery service , then 
should the item not be received after 14 days (28 days for International Mail) have elapsed, I will refund the 
purchase price or replace the item. 

I want you to be happy with my service, and ideally wish you to receive your item in perfect condition. 

For information, items sent by Standard mail, Royal Mail Compensation is limited to a maximum of £20. 
Compensation for The Signed-For service is also limited to a maximum of £50 but of course a signature 
is obtained. Items which are rare, listed in the SG catalogue and valued above this figure, or which 
I would find difficult to replace if lost, should be sent using the Special Delivery service. 

Please think carefully before placing your order and select the most secure service fit for the item you are 
buying. Sometimes I insist on one of the more secure services being used, mainly for more expensive or 
hard to replace items. 

INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE offers no guarantees/insurance unless you buy the International Signed or 
Tracked Services. Stamps will be fully insured. I will always obtain a Proof of Posting for stamps sent by 
Standard Airmail. In this case, if stamps are lost, it is your responsibility to claim. 

Please note that these are Royal Mail charges for the secure services offered and not mine. 
They have become essential because of the number of potential false claims levied against the 
Royal Mail and to comply with EBAY and PAYPAL's 'Trackable Policies'. 
This protects both you, as the buyer, and me the seller. THANK YOU FOR READING.
