Postage price increases     Date added: 10/05/2013
  Woolybus news - postage price increases

While we have tried to absorb any rises in the price for postage, unfortunately the latest wave of price hikes by Royal Mail and Yodel (previously listed as DHL) has put us in the position where we have had no option but to increase the postage prices that we charge for orders placed with us.

Details of these price increases are as follows:

Royal Mail 1st Class Recorded
Orders valued under £50.00 - price rises from £5.00 to £6.50
Orders valued between £50.00 and £149.99 - price rises from £7.50 to £8.50

Royal Mail Special Delivery
Orders valued under £50.00 - price rises from £7.50 to £8.00
Orders valued between £50.00 and £149.99 - price rises from £9.00 to £9.50

Yodel Economy Delivery (previously listed as DHL Economy Delivery)
Orders valued under £150.00 - price rises from £8.00 to £9.00

Orders valued at £150.00 and over will still receive free delivery by Yodel Economy Delivery.

We would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any anguish these unavoidable price rises may cause to you, our valued customers.
