a single first class stamp, summit like 30p, insurances whatever is inside the envelop upto the vaule of £27? coz i didnt! basically, u no that if u wana send something pricey, u do recorded mail and all that! well say u wana send £20 in an envelope, well u might do recorded mail, so if they lose it, u dont lose £20, well basically u could do that same stuff on a single first class stamp!
the post office have the nack of not telling u this, me and my mum only just found out, what happens is if u ask the post office they get u to sign for the send, and the person to sign for the delivery, so its recorded mail for standard letters included in ur stamp price! niftey!
well u learn something every day! :D |

However if you send it even recorded and the goods are over £27 they only pay you £27. A m8 sent a motherboard and processor to his family in south africa, it ended up in the USA hes like WTF, post office are like, well we can refund £27. Eventually after a few pissed off phone calls it got to SA.
Come to think of it now not sure if it was £26 or £27. |
