Due to changes by EBAY, and their policy to now charge commission on Postage & Packing Charges,
I am revising how I deal with these. In future I intend to include these charges in the bid/purchase price.
For this item, Free P&P applies to UK Buyers only, and the service the stamps will be sent by is the
Royal Mail Standard Service.
Should you use the Signed For or Special Delivery service , then should the item not be received
after 14 days have elapsed, I will refund the purchase price and make the claim myself.
IF YOU ONLY PAY FOR THE STANDARD SERVICE, THEN PLEASE NOTE IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY
TO CLAIM FOR LOSS AGAINST THE ROYAL MAIL. I WILL SEND YOU A CLAIMS FORM
TOGETHER WITH PROOF OF POSTING. PLEASE DO NOT ORDER FROM ME, IF YOU ARE
NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS ARRANGEMENT.
For information, items sent by standard mail, Royal Mail Compensation is limited to a maximum of £20.
Compensation for The Signed-For service is limited to a maximum of £50 but as stamps are treated as
'cash' it is unlikely any compensation would be paid. In order to be fully covered, it is recommended
you pay for Special Delivery. I will use a Collector Strip as postage.
Items which are rare, listed in the SG Catalogue and valued over this figure, or which I would find difficult
to replace if lost, will be sent using the Special Delivery service.
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.
