It costs the same to post to N Ireland as it does mainland, its 1 set price for the UK. Or so I was told when I posted parcels there a few months agoWins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.0 -
Yes, same price to post to Northern Ireland as it is part of UK. People often think it costs more but I post to England from NI all the time and the price is the same. The only time you pay more is when private courier firms are used.0
