    Is it from a marketplace seller rather than Amazon itself?

    And per item so if you buy two items from the same buyer then it will be 2 X lots of postage.

    The items have to qualify for the £5 delivery free thing. It will say under each item "this qualifies etc etc" if it doesn't say it then you pay postage.
