Terms and Conditions

Free postage and packing applies to all orders of £100 and over. Orders under £100 will attract a nominal £1.65 post and packing charge.

General

  • All prices listed are in pounds sterling.
  • All goods remain the property of Stamps by Post Ltd. until full payment is received.
  • VAT is not applied to postage stamps.

Delivery time of your order

All stamps are sent 1st Class and should arrive the next working day provided we receive your order by 4pm. We will endeavour to send orders received after 4pm the same day but cannot guarantee this. Royal Mail have a target of 93% of first class post to arrive by the next day which means that 7% will probably take longer. During December, please allow Royal Mail much longer and 1 week + is not unusual. Similarly, bank holidays do impact on postal delivery times so we advise to order early on these occasions.

  • Postage for all orders with a value of £100.00 or greater benefit from free postage & packing.
  • Orders under £100 will attract a nominal £1.65 post and packing charge.
  • Customers can opt for a ‘signed for’ delivery, for which we will apply the Royal Mail charge of £2.00.
  • Customers can also choose ‘special delivery’ for which we will apply a flat fee of £9.95 for orders weighing up to 1Kg and £12.15 for orders weighing between 1 – 2Kg

In the unlikely event that your package fails to arrive, then the following will apply:

  • As per Royal Mail’s Lost Items Notice, Items will not be considered as lost until after 15 working days for UK deliveries.
  • If a parcel is lost, then Stamps by Post will replace the stamps in the first instance. If the original stamps arrive after the replacement stamps the customer is obligated to inform Stamps by Post Ltd. and make arrangements for the second delivery to be paid for, or return the second order to Stamps by Post, PO Box 18094, Birmingham, B13 3QS.
