Cash payments can be made in UK pounds (Sterling) or US dollars by registered mail
If you decide to send a cheque it must be made payable to Peter
Cummings. For those wishing to send a cheque in their own currency (i.e. not
UK pounds) the equivalent of 3 pounds must be added to the total to cover bank
fees. This is the only way I can accept personal cheques from abroad.
All items are sent by first class post unless otherwise requested.
When sending packages outside the UK a customs form must be filled in. On this form it requires me to tick GIFT or MERCHANDISE. I always tick GIFT unless otherwise requested. The reason I do this is because some countries, like the UK, can open a package and if they wish charge an import tax on the value of its contents if it has been sent as MERCHANDISE. This has happened to packages sent to me on several occasions.
