Shipping

Shipping Costs

I always ship as economically as possible, whilst also respecting the value of the shipment.

In some cases, countries are now forcing me as the shipper to pay tariffs or import duties when I ship. This is new, as in the past, if there was an import duty or tariff due, the customer would pay when they received the parcel.

EU Shipments

Starting July 1, 2026, all shipments from UK to EU incur customs duties. I always put a lower value on the items to help out, but even so, the duties come to around £51 for most of the units I sell.

Unfortunately, this means the shipping is higher for EU recipients.

USA Shipments

Due to good ol’ DJT, USA shipments incur a 10% import duty when I ship the items.

I do put a lower value on the items to help you out, but this still results in a much higher shipping cost than you would think.

Recently these tariffs have been suspended or repealed (I can’t keep it all straight!), but even so, I am being charged tariffs on export to you. Who knows where that money goes?

In any case, thanks for understanding.
