Lot of money to spend?-I usually get answers in days from libraries and FHS if not the same day by email or phone using parish Bap Marriage Burials and MI's

Costly GRO.
In my opinion the marriage residence is not always the place of birth. Never forget Workhouse and overseers accounts records of birth

Looking at the link posted by Andycand, can someone explain to me the difference between -
Certificate issued by Superintendant Registrar formerly £7  Now £9.25
AND
Certificate issued by Registrar otherwise than at the time of registration formerly £3.50 now £7.

Surely all/most of certs. issued for family history come into the latter category anyway?
There does not seem to be any mention of a time scale.

when you register a birth, Marriage or Death they ask how many copies you want it is for each copy you will now have to pay 7 pound

No3 at local level registration

Certificate issued by a registrar otherwise than at the time of registration
was £3.50 new price £7

any ideas whats the difference to normal now £7 per cert at local register offices
Have we been paying too much out of ignorance

I would have thought most certificates for family history researchers come from either the Registrar General or the Superintendant Registrar.
With only a few coming from the registrar.

Forgot to add-
The Registrar holds the current register and can supply recent certificates.

When the register is full it is sent to the superintendant registrar.
