Both mine were with Amazon and both noted as super Saver Maz. however, without thinking I just did the one click order and that is what happened.

I usually go into 'my orders' or whatever it's called and try to combine things and also amend any 'first class' deliveries to 'super-saver'. however, if your order is actually not Amazon supplied (some of mine have come from other companies even tho ordered thru amazon site) then there is no supersaver option.

Thanks Ann - came at a good time as I am about to order some things.
Have had another look at the site and as you say there is no mention of this.

Thanks again - will be careful when I do the order later.

If you order goods from Amazon and use the one click method, did you know that by default it automatically sends your goods first class and you do not qualify for the super saver deals?

I recently ordered goods and was expecting a super saver deal - i.e. no post/packing. was horrified to see I was charged first class postage plus packing around £3. I contacted them and they have eventually agreed to refund the money. (I ordered Saturday and it arrived Tuesday so not quite first class!) I didn't see anywhere a warning that this would happen.
