John, As I'd said... I think both VAT & RM fee are down right robbery.... just recently we've had mail which has had under payment as postage, not only have we had to pay for someone elses short payment, over weight or reuse of used stamps.. but a £1.00 for handling.. which they do the same if it had full or right postage...

We mail most days of the week, at a cost of £2.07 upto 100gram for World via Air Mail, £2.35 to the next at 120gram.. the rest is shocking... of the wife's business, it's RM that is making any profit from it... but then we couldn't deliver 2 doz an more each day, World wide at the price.. an the Ladies are very nice at the PO..
