    I looked online and can't find any RM price increases for 1st April.


    Yet on eBay, when I choose 2nd class 100g large letter it is £1.32.
    RM website has it as 83p.


    As from today, Hermes are making changes to pricing and weight bands. I use Hermes on eBay.

    New RM prices are

    Weight up to and including 100g - 83p
    101g to 250g - £1.32

    So a 100g large letter should be 83p, a 101g large letter should be £1.32.

    I posted a couple of large letters today under 100g and was correctly charged 83p, and £1.32 for a couple of others in the next range.

    The RM link was offline for me this morning for at least 30 minutes, maybe they were applying a correction if there was an issue??

    Yes, as above that's what the OP. is discussing. However The large letter size at £2.26 has no insurance cover at all.

    As above this new service appears to be a large letter sized competitor to RM but unfortunately with no insurance, they call it 'postable' and it features in the tables now.

    Yesterday I used the print in store machine for Hermes. The price hasn't changed. I was charged £2.95, same as before.
