Following on from my post announcing suspension of Second Class postage option, I have negotiated new rates with Royal Mail.
I can now offer Tracked services for my smaller orders for only a small increase over regular untracked post.
The difference between 2nd (48) and 1st (24) is smaller now (due to a larger increase in 2nd/48 price) but all services will have full tracking.
Previously I was losing money on the 1st/2nd options, so this brings things into alignment while at the same time offering a better service for customers.
The new services are called “Letterboxable” (who thinks up these things?). I have to get confirmation on if there is an actual size limit and if so what it is to find out if packages thicker than Large Letter dimensions will be included (tuners, Gotoh packaged bridges etc). When I know I shall make any price adjustments.
I’ve updated the site for standard UK services and will work on updating all the different shipping areas/services this afternoon.
Also note that prices should actually come down 10-15p in January when the “peak season surcharge” is removed.
That’s my exciting revelation for the year. Just in time!
