Postage costs are kept to a minimum. I do package items well however, should you wish insurance for any item please advise me as I cannot be held responsible for any loss or breakages during shipment. Why not buy more than one item and reduce the postage cost by combining the items. Overseas purchasers please contact me for postage costs before the item ends as those quoted are for UK residents ONLY. I only accept Paypal in Pounds Sterling from overseas bidders. All items are posted within 3 working days of receiving payment.
