"....I'm thinking sending them 'signed for' would be for the best."

Understand why, but for some, included me!, signed for can easily mean a difficult trip to depot(s)!

Yeah I totally get that. I'm trying to not make things too difficult for myself and get them all sent the same way, rather than giving everyone the choice but I suppose it wouldn't be too problematic for me to give a standard and signed for option.
I do worry that if I'm sending around 70 packages the likelihood of a couple going missing is quite high, and making a claim would probably be easier using signed for.

Nothing's set in stone. I'm just mulling over the options.

You could just use the ‘proof of postage’ option which is cheap and still gives you a tracking number that often confirms delivery occurred.

That's what I normally do when sending individual/small batches of parcels.

I must admit I don't know much about the options for buying postage online and bulk posting. Not having a printer at home is probably going to be an issue! I'm sure there's a way that means I don't need to take 70 parcels to the PO and wait for an hour or more while they process them

You've more than done your "bit", whatever post method works easiest for you is fine by "us"!

Who exactly other than yourself

I'd send signed for.
Admittedly it adds a quid or so to the parcel cost, but i think nobody would rather have compo than a snazzy RB snood

Just assumed I can't be the only buyer who is out cycling every morning!

I've now got the invoice. Buying the snoods, including delivery to me, and VAT, works out at £5.05 per unit. Lead time is currently 3-4 weeks. I'll get it paid today.

Just let us know when you're ready for payment

 

[Chopper the ex Copper]

Aye, let me know when you want some lolly.
