Postage & Packing

April 2023. Please note changes to our post & packing policies and prices due to Royal Mail price increases

You, in most cases, should only pay one postage charge per order.

If you order a book with a £3.00 (£1.25 + £1.75) postage charge and 6 postcards with £1.25 postage charge, you should only pay the £3.00.

We normally try to dispatch items within 24 hours of correct payment having been received, excluding Sundays and UK holidays. If there are other times we will try to notify you here or on the checkout page.

Please ensure you select the correct postage price at checkout, items will not be dispatched unless the correct postage has been paid. 

If you have any queries, please contact us shop@ship-rex.com
