Note that due to new Brexit policies the cost of shipping to the UK has increased significantly, especially for high-value shipments requiring insurance. If your book order is heavy, thick, over-sized (most folio/quarto "4to"), or multi-volume, an extra shipping charge will likely be assessed to cover the actual cost of the shipment, or your order will be cancelled.
