I took 4 packages last Saturday to get prices. A lot of good that did me, the clerk never told me prices were going up today. A package going to UK that was 23.16, today was 31.55. Guess they are trying to catch up to Canada.
this definitely sucks! Too bad there isn't a way HDN members can get a special rate when shipping via USPS. 
OMG, I changed importing from CA to the US because of the shipping costs for the same steel...And now virtually no difference! At least shipping from the UK is relatively inexpensive.
I would disagree there; t's a lot cheaper even now from the US than Rip-off Mail. 8 Steels by RM with Tracking is more expensive than using UPS through a freight forwarder which includes detailed tracking and automatic cover to £250.

I'm not in with the big boys
...I'm thinking 1 steel shipping pricingRoyal Mail seems to be cheaper.
1 SB - 5~6.5 GBP
2 SB - 8~10 GBP
3 SB - 12~14 GBP
and tracking costs 5.6 GBP on top which is lower than USPS.
Looks like I might have to cancel my Japan order which are US bound.

Certainly not "big boy". Think that 3 is a good price if you're talking RM, unit cost gets too high.
same as what he said
you are now just as bad as Canada Post prices
and second as bad as Australia Post prices too I will say this ... im quoting flat rate shipping costs ... so that means weight doesnt matter for the most part.
so for $23.95 its possible to ship 2 steels extra secure, extra fast (5-10 bus. days) priority
and then ... its still possible to ship 3 in there but with some fenaggling to make sure secure ...
So not too bad when broken down like that.... so $8 USD per steel.

I haven't looked, but what about first class international? What's the difference in cost there?
Its is about double to Canada with the new tracking feature. For example it would cost about $3.45 to ship a regular blu ray to CA under previous rates. New cost is about $7 with tracking at no additional cost if printed via PayPal, eBay or on USPS. com. As stated b4 Canada is first with tracking for 1st class packages. I cannot comment on any other countries till I actually have a transaction there.
the price of a 12 oz. package 1st Class International to the UK went up $3.38. Was $10.03, now $13.41 when printed on-line, $14.90 at the post office.
edit -omg, the price to send just an amaray to the UK is $11.48! Used to be like $7.
