Default Delivery costs.
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..

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.

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.
