Post by vitaliistep »

Hello guys,

I've sent a small parcel to China today, the weight is below 750g. It costed £17.65 and it seems there is no tracking number. Why does it cost so much then?!

Cheers,
Vitalii

We are not an official site so sorry we can't explain why they charge that much, but it does appear to be the correct rate for a Zone 3 standard parcel of that weight.

Tracked appears only a little more expensive £18.50 up to 750g to Zone 3. https://www.royalmail.com/sites/royalma ... r-2022.pdf
