Royal Mail price changes April 02 2014, 0 Comments
31st March - the joy of the annual changing of Royal Mail prices.
But there's a bit of good news this time - some prices have gone down.
So although I've had to put my price for a small UK parcel up to 750g up a bit, the good news is that I've been able to REDUCE the price of a medium parcel up to 2kg.
UK Large Letters REMAIN THE SAME.
European prices for sizes up to 250g (most parcels) STAY THE SAME. Larger parcels have gone up a little.
Rest of World prices for sizes up to 250g (most parcels) STAY THE SAME. There's a small increase for parcels in the 250-750g range, but I've been able to REDUCE the largest size by whole £1.
I've adjusted the dollar rates to be in line with today's rates, which unfortunately wipes out any decreases for customers buying in $US, so the price for you, will in effect, mostly stay the same.
Having created spreadsheets for these changes and manually amended all the prices in the shop from Gibraltar to Greenland, I hope the prices remain the same until at least this time next year!
I feel a bit like the Chancellor giving the Budget speech - but here is a summary of current prices which you can always find in the Delivery section of the shop.
UK - Royal Mail 1st class
- 0-49g - £1.10
- 50-750g - £3.20
- 751g-2kg - £5.30
Europe - Airmail
- 0-99g - £2.95
- 100-250g - £3.45
- 251-500g - £4.95
- 501-750g - £6.25
- 751-1kg - £7.95
- 1.01kg-2kg - £13.50
Rest of the World - Airmail
- 0-99g - £3.50 (approx $5.80)
- 100-250g - £4.50 (approx $7.50)
- 251-500g - £7.95 (approx $13.25)
- 501-750g - £10.50 (approx $17.50)
- 750-1kg - £13.50 (approx $22.50)
- 1.01kg-2kg - £24.00 (approx $40)
Now there just needs to be hand-dyed in the shop to buy! Keep an eye out tomorrow - I have a few skeins which I plan to add to the shop throughout the day - not a huge amount. And then I'm taking a week's Easter break until April 14th.
