    Thank you very much soolin - very helpful indeed. I live in a little village which equals tiny post office and the staff don't seem to know most of the things I asked for so a bit hesitant on asking for something else that they might frown on. It gets rather embarassing / frustrating sometimes but I'll "man" up tomorrow...

    I'm just wondering how long it will be before we get the first thread asking whether anyone realised the postal prices had gone up?

    As I mentioned earlier I think it is going to be the people using international signed for who will be the most disadvantaged due to the enormous price increase. One of my competitors uses it and they are already nearly £3 dearer than me for overseas shipping and now will be over £5 dearer. I'm just a bit worried though as their 30 day BINs that went up yesterday and still showing International signed for at a price below the actual cost of the signed for alone.
