Just DON'T fall for the economy air post trap ... The post office charged almost as much as air mail and sent it by sea , 3 1/2 months for supposed air mail .

For items less than < 2kg Royal Mail Small Packets used to be good value....
but like all shipping prices have shot up in the past year or 2....

Here is a link to calculate costs:

which ones are you after ? Good idea to check with the postage calculater just to see how fair the seller is . If they're rorting you there are several people here with friends in the uk who can re-send stuff for you .
