Delivery costs.

[30stone]

What is the usual delivery cost on somthing small.

as ive just tried buying my mum a box of choclates from throntons they are only like 9 pound, but the delivery will cost me another £6.95. It says choose delivery method but there is only one thing on there.

It doesnt seem right..

I got something from Thorntons before it wasnt that much, about £2-3 I think, probably cos its Xmas and theres a postal strike Friday and such like

Aw darn.

They shouldnt really say choose your delivery method if there is only one then.. lol.

ohh well thats now almost 16 pound for 14 chocolates...

Normally I pay about £2 - £5 for devliery costs. It shouldn't be more than that depending on whether it's an elephant you're buying or something. Any more and you're being ripped off.

fookin hell, thats over a £1 a chocolate, I hope she likes them!

LOl i know, but yeh i went into town today and went in 2 shops and they didnt have them so i had to buy them online, but yeh she loves em says best shes ever had lol. so i suppose its worth it.

Though a pound a choclate still annoying me lol.

Some places charge way over inflated prices, we charge carriage at cost which is pretty cheap as we use fastway as our couriers and they are very competitive.
