a good way that to make more losses although they claim its to recover losses 😞 how they can justify a price hike like that though is a joke..costco though are good if you buy in bulk as you save 20% on the VAT I will be off there anyway to stock up 😉

I rarely use first class stamps and if this keeps up, I won't be able to use second class either. I started stocking up a few weeks ago so, I should be ok for a while.

60p for first class................terrible news.

I just hope that Royal Mail keep letting te packets slip through unfranked.

Shocking increase by Royal Mail,won't improve the service in any way-just a rip off.Will have to stock up on stamps before the end of April.

I have just been looking at the new prices compared to the old, and although in most cases we lose, signed book collectors will save money on books no heavier that 749g as packets now have a new low band of 0 to 750g lumped together (£2.70 1st, £2.20 2nd). It currently costs £3.05 1st / £2.61 2nd to send a package weighing between 500g and 750g - a common weight for books.
