Dear customers,
I do not know how many of you have noticed, but we had some small changes in shipping fees.
For more than ten years we have kept the prices in shipping fees steady, despite the increases.
In the past 3-4 months, Royal Mail in the UK and US Post Office have significantly raised their prices, courier services as well, flights are still not resumed in many places in the world. We apologize, but we need to charge a bit extra for shipping.
It’s not just an increase in the price though, it comes with improving the service; we are shipping more and more parcels with courier services so, in many cases, we can now provide tracking numbers and the books will get to you much faster. Applying flat international shipping saves your and our time with back and forth emails for postage enquires, leaving time to process the orders faster. We have also unified the charges for all European countries.
Here, you can see the new shipping fees.

@Thomas
That’s the idea! 🙂
I’m not sure if too many customers will agree.
@Kallia Kleisarchaki
In one section (underneath the table) you have written 4 books for the price of 6, when you obviously mean 6 for the price of 4.
Thanks for the heads up. I’m in the US and typically order directly from you rather than through Amazon. I’ve had serious quality issues with how Amazon packages books. They usually arrive with damaged corners and even the binding in some cases. In contrast the books I receive directly from you are always extremely well packaged and the book arrives in perfect condition. So despite the shipping rate increases I will likely continue to order directly from you because of the aforementioned issues with Amazon.
