pikeys dog Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 depends on your mailer and how many stiffeners you put in - don't think you're far out on £4 to be honest.
Pete S Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Anything over £3 is a bit expensive to be honest - I usually charge £2.20 (mailer, 3 bits of card). If it's signed for, then it's £7 or so now.

You must be running at a loss then, Pete - I gave Kenny a quote last night, based on what the Post Office had charged me - an hour or so earlier - to post one normal 45 to the States, in a card sleeve inside a regular 'Wilton Packaging' type mailer and between two pieces of cardboard, sent 'small packet'... It was £2.90 on the nose...

Must have gone up then - never cost me more than £2.50 - and with respect, I probably send out more records per week than you do Tone. £2.40 to Australia, USA isn't going to be more than that.
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Maybe it's like a Tesco's cheap beans type thing, loss leader Hope they do another one of those soon, I'm down to my last 10 four-packs of Branston's...
Pete S Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Hope they do another one of those soon, I'm down to my last 10 four-packs of Branston's... Off topic but Branstons baked beans are easily the best at the moment, ever since Heinz changed their recipe a few years ago.

The weight was around 155g and I'm not making this up, honest! "Can provide proof of postage" as they say... Edited May 13, 2011 by TONY ROUNCE
