What are the delivery rates for Marketplace orders?

Delivery rates for some items sold by  Sellers may differ. Please check the delivery charges before you click the final "Place your order" button on the checkout page. Please note that Super Saver Delivery isn't available for Marketplace items. Postage rates and delivery information for items sold by Sellers at Amazon Marketplace can also be found when you click on a Seller's feedback rating in a list of Sellers offering an item for sale. From the page that appears, just click on "Delivery rates" or "Shipping rates" at the bottom right of the page.

Express Delivery from Marketplace Sellers is a separate service from the Express Delivery option offered by Amazon. If you're not happy with the delivery dates shown when you place your order, you have the option to cancel the order in your account within 30 minutes of placing the order.

Calculating total delivery cost when you purchase more than one item.

As Marketplace orders are dispatched from different individual Sellers, you pay a separate delivery charge for each item you order. This is the case even if you order a number of items from the same Seller at the same time. To calculate the total delivery charge, add together the appropriate delivery rates for each item.

We display the domestic standard delivery fee associated with Seller offerings to make the potential delivery costs clearer. The delivery cost associated with a particular item is also displayed while you're placing your order.

Note: Items sold by Marketplace sellers in the US or Canada may also be subject to import duties and taxes that are levied once the package reaches your country. Learn more.

Where can I get a Marketplace order delivered to?

Sellers on Amazon.co.uk Marketplace can choose their own delivery destinations. If during the ordering process you see a message that the item you want to buy can't be dispatched to your country, it's likely your Seller has specified domestic delivery (UK) only. If the item isn't available for delivery to your location you might want to check if other Sellers are offering the same item and can deliver to your address. You could also contact the Seller to let them know that you're interested in purchasing the item. The Seller may then choose to make it available for delivery to your location.

Which customs or import fees do I have to pay if my order is being delivered to an address outside the UK?

When ordering from Marketplace Sellers, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods. You may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied once the package reaches your country. See here for more information.
