how do i buy two things with the discount P&P?

Ive looked in FAQ's but this is obviously a question that is so easy it is never frequently asked!

I wanna buy two items from the same seller, ive emailed the seller and he was a bit vague, saying just combine them together and adjust. That doesnt really tell me anything!!

Ive bought a few things in the past but i cant remember seeing an option that lets you add another item or something.

If anyone can help or put me in the direction of a link i would be very grateful! I can see me just going for it and then having to pay P&P for both!

    There's no automatic way for a buyer to do it unless seller gives precise instructions like 'take off 50p p and p when you pay'. Ask the seller specifically to quote you p and p for the two items you want, and keep that email safe. Then after auction finishes either manually adjust th einvlice yourself or ask the seller to do it.

    If the seller has an automatic postage reduction it appears at the bottom of the item page with postage details, such as "P&P£5 per item and £2.50 each additional item". If it has this it is automated on checkout, if not, the buyer has to do it.

    Bear in mind that on occasion to post 2 items it can be more than double posting one, so apart from the extra sale the seller may not be gaining on postage.
