    I thought you could just add something small to bring it over £25 and then cancel that item after the order goes through.
    This used to work anyway.

    That might work for the free shipping dubmick, but Amazon Prime is a different thing. Prime is an added cost (annual) that gives you very fast shipping to GB addresses. Non-Prime orders seem to be suffering as a result.
    You can use Prime and Parcel Motel together, but if you order multiple items they may be dispatched in multiple shipments. Meaning more than one 'stay' in Parcel Motel.

    i always tick the box that combines the shipping to one delivery with Amazon.

    This does not guarantee that you get a single shipment.

    I usually buy a cheap SATA 2.5" hard disk enclosure (€4-€5), I've always use for them :)
