If I sign up for Amazon Prime 30-day free trial, am I correct in thinking a lot of items purchased may still charge for delivery? And how would you know before you sign up which items would be charged postage, or is that not possible.


I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.

    Hey there. Yes, you can search Amazon without an account and filter by clicking the 'Prime' tick box. 

    Let me know if you have any trouble doing that.

    Thanks for your reply, not sure how I do this. Could you talk me through the process please.
    I do have an Amazon account but not a prime account.
    Thank you.

    Any items that are dispatched by Amazon, which is clearly shown in the item description, will be free delivery. It is 3rd party sellers that dispatch themselves that can charge and again that is clearly shown.  On a non prime account the prime free delivery items will show "Free delivery on orders over £20 shipped by Amazon"
