£42 delivery? Are they taking the phish? And to get it delivered in store takes 4 days :o.

A bit naff really. An evening wasted drawing up a shopping list, grrrr

I was expecting a £15-£20 delivery charge, as I can ship a pallet for £15, and I'm sure they can negotiate better with their couriers. £42 is a piss take. Or over £50 if I wanted it here by the weekend.

Oh just pay it, better things to be buggering about with.

Of course most of what they sell is available cheaper elsewhere .. often eBay, but as you refuse to buy from places like that ;)

They are quite pricey, but as they were incredibly helpful in helping me prove some of what was in my garage, I'm happy to pay a little extra for that level of service. But over £40 postage is taking the piss.

eGay serves no useful purpose for the sane.
