This year's issue features the legand of the Faery Queen Myrtilla and Nathaniel, the poor shepherd who caught her eye... There are two stamp designs this year, listings on eBay are therefore for two - one of each item - where appropriate, this means at first glance the individual listings might look high but please don't be put off. Please note that this year there are only 10 bonus items for the 'Early Bird' buyers, but if you can't get to it quickly there are still bonus items for Forum members here and this year we have a special item for all 'Special Delivery' buyers too.  Any questions please ask - and apologies for the late listing, it seems to creep up every year but lockdown hasn't helped. We also found out late that ebay have changed their methods of payment and their listing procedures, so some last minute registration to do, and as I only really do this once a year that was a big surprise! EBay link: As ever I'd be pleased to hear what you think, if it's nice post it here, if it's not then PM me...

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who has bought the stamps so far.
All of the first orders are already in the post so watch out for your postman. Our local post office were very intrigued by the stamps... they also advised me NOT to add a Customs label on the overseas envelopes as the contents are only paper and have a value of less than the VAT threshold. I will be interested to hear how the overseas packages are treated at the borders, post-Brexit, let me know if you have any problems. If you have any comments (preferably favourable!) please start a new thread under 'Cinderella Stamps' as this thread will be removed after 30 days .

Only another three days to wait according to my notification. I didn't know Royal Mail did third class postage as well.

I think that is the standard expectation for 'Second Class signed for' but hopefully it usually works out quicker than that.
No-one - so far - this year has chosen the Special Delivery option that would have seen a guaranteed pre 1pm next day delivery.

If you have a whole 5 hours off for eating and sleeping Google Maps says you can walk to me from Norwich in 2 days. So mine should be here on Thursday.

Or you could walk here, it's downhill from Derbyshire so you won't need those 5 hours off...
