So I went to the post office today to ship a mobile phone accessory. They asked me if the item was electrical and if it contained batteries. I think specifically they were referring to "Lithium ion/polymer/metal/alloy batteries when not sent with, or contained in/connected to an electronic device, are prohibited."
I've never been asked about batteries before when posting items in the UK, so it might be worth being extra vigilant when posting guitar pedals, accessories etc when batteries are involved. Not sure what the eventual issues would be but might be important in case the goods are damaged and you want to claim on the insurance.

just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
