Our core business was always intended to be secondhand
railway materials. Over the past few years we have become far more
diversified than ever intended. In an attempt to get back to what we
know best, we shall, over the next few months, be listing several thousand
brand new from publisher books everyone with a starting price of
LESS THAN THE PUBLISHERS RRP. Many of these
books may well be now out of print and sought after. We shall also be
listing all of our none railway related stock.

Unless our optional insurance is taken up we
can no longer be responsible for losses or damages caused by Royal Mail.
We arrange our own insurance independently of Royal Mail. Without the
optional insurance the buyer will have to pursue their own claim against
Royal Mail for loss or damage which we will gladly assist with as much
as we are able.
The reason for this is that because we have
our mail collected we are not able to obtain proof of postage and
without such proof Royal Mail will not consider a claim by us. However
for us it is a catch 22 situation, we post out many, many parcels every
day and if we take the parcels to a local post office they refuse to
give us proof of postage because of the sheer quantity!!
Our experience is that if one individual
claims for one lost or damaged packet Royal Mail quite happily settles.
Please be advised that our postage costs
include a small extra amount to cover our purpose made corrugated card
packaging, the costs of a daily post collection by Royal Mail and the
costs of renting a franking machine (Franked mail is considerably
cheaper than postage stamped mail). This small additional amount has
been calculated by the accountants of Nene Valley - Railway Books at a
level slightly BELOW what it actually costs us.
We always reduce postage costs for multiple
purchases
