This one discounted the P+P but added it back on the cost of the hook.

What you doing, there is no way on God's earth would I pay that much for a hook, go to B&Q, get a taxi and still be cheaper ::) ::)

But it's only a hook, where are you putting it, will it be on show. Guess if it is in you bedroom no one will see it so just get a plastic one to hang your dressing gown up :D :D :D

its true he did say bed room
but to pay that sort of price for a hook is way over the top
have you had a look in the screwfix book :y
-
its that price as he sends thru APC not the post office, they will collect the item and probably he will have more packages to send.
if i remember correctly they charge 6.40 plus vat. saves going to the post office every day, thats what i would do, i use interparcel, but only for car stereo size packages and up

For decent sized items I dont mind, but if he is ebaying as a business then he will reduce his turnover and profit purely and simply because of his P+P charges as customers just wont pay it.

I've reported the ebay one
follow the path "listing policy breaches > circumvention of ebay fees > excessive postage and packaging" if ever you find other items like that

as long as they send them via courier for the charge but theres no nedd somehting like that would be fine in a jiffy bag royal mail'ed
