Hi.I went to post something last week and the Post Office mentioned new Tariffs being introduced on Business to Consumer sales within the EU.I've read some more information online which states that there is a €3 flat rate charge on a single item type + Post Office admin fee of £1 on items less that €150. If you send 1 item or multiple of the same items totalling less than €150 it is still €3 + £1 but if you send 2 different items there is the €3 for eachFor example a watch worth £50 will be an extra €3 + £1.2 watches worth £50 each will be an extra €3 + £1But a watch worth £50 + a T shirt worth £10 would be €3 + €3 + £1When I have put some examples in Royal Mail online postage buyer however some of the fees coming up are crazy (e.g. £16 on a £50 watch to Dublin on top of the postage price).I know some countries within the EU are considering more additional tariffs but I didn't know there were any yet. With all this uncertainty how can we work out what postage to charge?Has anyone a clue what is going on?
