We will combine postage and packaging on our auction items if you wish. If you are intending to bid on another item please inform us and we will then re-calculate the postage and invoice you accordingly. If you wish to purchase some fixed price items from the shop, again please inform us and we will adjust postage to reflect this. If you are planning on bidding on an item and for any reason are not going to be around at the end of an auction, please let me know - I don't bite. I have no objection to holding items for you at all but it does take time to send repeated reminders to forgetful bidders and it seems to be happening a lot! I will only open non-paying bidder cases for extreme offenders although it has happened and really, nobody wants to receive one because they have been forgetful.
