Below the free threshold, or if you choose express delivery, you pay the Royal Mail rate for your parcel size. The final postage charge is confirmed when you pay.
How we size your parcel
Diecasts are always packed in a proper parcel — never as a letter. We automatically estimate the most suitable parcel size based on your order.
- Small parcel — most orders (singles, minis, deluxe, multipacks)
- Medium parcel — haulers or larger/heavier orders
Your estimated parcel size and postage quote are shown in the basket and at checkout.
Royal Mail rates
Prices are based on Royal Mail Click & Drop rates and vary depending on parcel size. Heavier medium parcels (2–10kg or 10–20kg) cost more — your exact price is calculated in the basket and at checkout.
Delivery times are estimates provided by Royal Mail and may vary. Not an official Royal Mail partnership.
Packing & dispatch
- We aim to dispatch all orders within 1–3 business days
- You'll get an email when your order ships
- Diecasts are carefully packed for Royal Mail delivery; choose collector packaging at checkout for extra card protection
We follow UK consumer law regarding delivery responsibility once Royal Mail marks a parcel as delivered.
Shipping FAQ

Orders are automatically packed based on item weight and packing requirements. Most diecast orders are sent as Small Parcels (up to 2kg), with larger orders upgraded to a medium parcel where required.
When is postage calculated?
Postage is calculated automatically at checkout based on your order and delivery address. The final postage charge is always confirmed before you pay.
