Please DO NOT buy items separately and expect the SELLER to offer refunds. I am not a Fan of REFUNDS as ebay takes a percentage of the postage, and upon doing a refund, ebay DOES NOT give back their share. a CHARGEBACK/REFUND fee is applied to the Seller's account. THEREFORE to avoid all of this, do not use eBAY's MOBILE PHONE APP! Open the browser on Mobile/Computer, log into ebay, add the items you want into the basket, Commit to the purchase, but stop, do not pay. On the next page is a Link/button "REQUEST invoice from SELLER". Press it and I will get a notification from ebay that items have sold. I will send you a Combine postage invoice. My eBay account is set up for COMBINE POSTAGE. If you have an issue, (especially non-UK users), log into ebay.co.uk with your username and password, and try here, rather than on EBAY.COM, EBAY.DE, EBAY.FR, EBAY.IE, etc POSTAGE : Yes. I know my postage is High. Due to the shambles of the ROYAL MAIL / Strikes in December 2022 & Cyber attack in January 2023, UK RECORDED postage did not work. Many buyers complained to the sellers that their items were not getting delivered. To avoid this, I use SPECIAL DELIVERY in the UK. SECURE and NEXT DAY DELIVERY. If you want your items (<£50 in value) to be posted RECORDED, please inform me before bidding/buying. (Do not ask me after the purchase).DISCOUNT : My Prices are set. eBay is NOT FREE for sellers. We pay Hefty fees. The coins on sale were bought over many years at a price, I add 5% for profit/inflation and I add ebay's fee. The price you see is that Total. I only offer discount with private sales.
