    Posting to the USA from UK

    In one of my other lives I send a fair few things to different parts of the world, including the USA and in doing so recently discovered that there is now a separate zone just for them, and it is more expensive than the other two.

    I thought I would point this out for anyone making purchases from the UK, that there is now a Zone 3 at the UK post office counter, and they are no longer giving a decisive delivery time but a longer period of time before an item is considered lost.

    I don't know if this would also apply to the carriers, but suspect that it will have to be taken into consideration.

    The limit for an Air Mail package is 2Kg, and there are restrictions on the size of parcel which can be accepted, but the regulations seem unchanged for the moment.

    It is something I will have to keep an eye on, so will report any further developments.
