Worldwide free shipping at Elzybells UK
In my wildest dreams I never dreamed this would happen.
Elzybells UK is celebrating their 5th anniversary and offering free worldwide shipping. I ordered 32 stamps and I am doing the happy dance.
I love Elzybells.

Does anyone in the US sell the clear sets??
I am guessing they are the same price, but I hate to have a simple friendly helpful post of free shipping cost me $55 in 2 minutes.

The dollar is roughly half of a pound. So 3 pounds is like 6 dollars.

It's actually much better than that right now. It was about two dollars to a pound back in the summer, but it's about a dollar and a half now.

This was true about 2-3 months ago...it's actually a much better deal now...around $1.60 to 1 pound.
Actually the rate has gotten almost 20 cents better since Monday! Makes me wonder if I would save by putting the order in Sunday afternoon??

I suppose it will be weeks before the package arrives. Just hope I get it in time to make Christmas cards.

I'm in Texas and it usually takes a couple weeks to get here. Hope that helps a bit.

For those who ordered, did you purchase mounted or unmounted? Just curious. I think I'm going to take the plunge for free shipping.

Something I didn't think about until after I made a purchase. I'm with BOA and I think they charge a 3% foreign exchange rate for atm purchases online. Not sure. But, I did purchase 3 unmounted stamps and some mounting foam.

Gotta love free shipping!! For anyone hesitant about ordering from the UK, I've ordered from several UK online stores without any problems. Sometimes the packages arrive faster than others but I've never waited very long for anything. I've never been charged a conversion fee by my bank and I've never had any issues of any kind.

I ordered unmounted stamps moslty because I prefer them. They take up less space. I guess my next purchase should be some mounting cushion. I'll use my Micheals coupon for that. I assume they do carry it.

They seem to get to Texas as fast it ordering from Canadian stores.

The few things I've ordered from the UK have gotten here (I'm in Canada) FASTER than most stuff I order from the US! I'm trying to hold off ordering anything ... I am have not bought anything online since August 31st! Yes, I have bought from SU at my stamp club, but nothing online ... my Visa card was getting too "extended" ... and hubby was not impressed!

I just ordered the unmounted and a A4 sheet of mounting cling. It seemed cheaper, and it will save me on storage space, which I am lacking of (though I ordered only 4 stamps. (Had to restrain myself)
