Delivery and Dispatch
We dispatch every order within one working day. Standard UK orders are sent free of charge by Royal Mail 2nd Class, high-value items are sent tracked for added security, and larger or bulkier items are charged at cost. We ship internationally as well, with postage that varies by destination. Whatever you order is packed stamp-safe before it leaves us.
At a glance
How quickly we dispatch
Once you have bought a stamp, you want it in your hands. Every order is dispatched within one working day of payment, carefully packed and ready for the post. Orders placed over a weekend or a public holiday are sent on the next working day.
UK delivery
Most UK orders are sent free of charge, with valuable and bulkier items handled a little differently so that everything arrives safely and fairly priced.
| Your order | How we send it |
|---|---|
| Standard items | Free, by Royal Mail 2nd Class |
| High-value items | Sent tracked, for added security |
| Larger or bulkier items | By an appropriate Royal Mail service, charged at cost and shown at checkout |
For the great majority of orders, that means free postage and no decision to make. Where an item is especially valuable or too large for a standard envelope, the service is matched to it, and any postage cost is always shown clearly at checkout before you pay.
Tracking on valuable orders
Tracked for security
For high-value stamps we use a tracked service, so your order can be followed on its way and confirmed on arrival. It is a simple piece of reassurance for the items where it matters most, and it means something precious is never simply left to chance in the post.
Sending stamps overseas
We post to collectors around the world. International postage varies by destination and is shown at checkout, and there are a small number of regions we are currently unable to ship to for security reasons. You will find the full picture, including the regions we cover, on our international shipping page.
Safely packed, every time
However your order travels, it is packed to the same careful standard: sealed against moisture and protected inside a rigid, board-backed envelope. You can see exactly how a stamp is protected on our packaging page.
