Original “UK Royal Mail & Overseas Shipping Methods 21st Aug Prices” contribution:
http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/4473

I have modified to enable the Royal Mail shipping modules for specific categories of the products only. Example: DVD disks can be sent using the Royal Mail 1st recorded services; as for Jewellery you need to enable Special Delivery only .

This contribution is for UK Stores only. What it will do is add several shipping zones to your osCommerce store. If your customer is UK based, it will not show any of the International Shipping Options, and vice versa.

Shipping Methods:
(1) Royal Mail First Class Standard Post (upto 3.0Kg Limit)
(2) Royal Mail Second Class Standard Post (upto 1.0Kg Limit)
(3) Royal Mail First Class Recorded Post (upto 3.0Kg and £32.00 Limit)
(4) Royal Mail Second Class Recorded Post (upto 1.0Kg and £32.00 Limit)
(5) Royal Mail Standard Parcels (upto 20.0Kg and £500) with additional insurance
