    Just checked dates. I ordered the second batch on 13/4/12 and it arrived on 20/4/12.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    My R M stamps came saturday by special delivery/signed for. Posted Friday.
    Cute little booklets not like the old fashioned sheets.

    saturday, 14th April.
  • I ordered my stamps from the Royal Mail website on 16th April and they arrived recorded delivery this morning. Slow delivery but I didn't pay postage (is that because I spent a fortune?) so feel it wasn't a bad service at all. Just need to remember I have all these stamps and not buy more in the near future...
  • hi, i ordered some 2nd class stamps last nite and checked this morning and money has been taken from my account. I went on the royal mail webiste to view order history so i could check the status or how long it may take as they have not said. Went on view order history and says' Error: Problem encountered - Display process failure'.

    Am a bit worried reading other posts of them taking so long. Just concerned order may get cancelled or something and i miss out before price rise.

    Has anybody else got this error at all?

    I ordered a sheet of 2nd class stamps from Royal Maisl website Monday 16th and have yet to recieve them, or any follow up communication about delays or dispatch.

    I appreciate they must be overloaded with orders, but a message on their website stating a more realistic delivery time would be helpful.

    Becky I ordered 2 sheets of 2nd class and 1 of 1st class on the 16th as well. Finally got them in the mail this morning. Hopefully you'll get yours soon as well :)

    I too ordered some stamps on April 16th ( Royal Mail Shop) and they arrived today so all orders honored.

    I did notice however notice last weekend they removed most of the rolls of stamps over 500 to stop people last minute ordering in bulk.
  • Went into superdrug yesterday to get a couple of books and was told that their supply had been stopped not a stamp to be had. Shame on you Royal mail.

    While i was in Morrisons yesterday I picked up 6 books of 12 2nd class & 1 of 12 1st class. Doesn't seem to be any limit, infact cashier asked me if I wanted any stamps or I probably wouldn't have even thought about it. Hth
