Jump to unread Post a CommentA letter via SD is £5.90 so I don't think it's too bad a price for a packet.
However, next time you would be better off sending Recorded mail, with signature on arrival and £46 compensation. It would be normal postage costs (so probably £2.20 for a small packet) plus 95p (or might be 90p) extra for the recorded service.

The only problem with recorded is that it is only a proof of posting and not trackable.

Recorded is proof of delivery.
You obtain a certificate or a stamped receipt if you want proof of posting.
Having said that, Recorded will suffice as proof, but so would SD..

Recorded delivery cannot be tracked along it's route, only when it is signed for do you know where it is.
It does not go in a separate mailbag but is sorted with the rest of the mail.
So if it goes missing between you posting and it's destination you are stuffed. I've had letters that have the recorded sticker on posted through my door without me having to sign.
All recorded does over a 1st class stamp is get a signature so someone can't deny getting it. If its delivered whilst not signed then RM can't prove otherwise. What postie would say oh yeah I delivered that but didn't get a signature.

You're still getting confused.
Regardless of your lazy post man, it is still a POD service.
Always has been, always will be.
If you sent a 20 foot long neon sign by RMSD and they last tracked it in a depot half way to destination. They probably still wouldn't find it.
Always use RD if the item is worth less than £46 as your covered to that replacement value. SD does cover you for consequential loss or so I've been told before. I sent Tesco Clubcard vouchers which had no rl value but if they went missing the SD would cover the value loss towards th holiday I was booking.
