How come?
« on: August 26, 2014, 09:18:32 AM »
On Sunday evening 24th August I ordered and paid for, a single item (not the same product) from each of 6 online sellers, 5 of whom are based and with stock in the UK and all charging postage in addition to the purchase price.
All of these sellers quoted delivery for these small items by Royal Mail to a UK address between 29 August - 1st September.

The 6th item was located in Malaga, Spain, where, according to UPS online tracking, it departed at 1.07pm yesterday, then travelled via Madrid, Koln (Germany), Stansted, Dartford and was delivered to Medway (Kent) just before 8.30 this morning! (August 26th)

Even better, it was free postage and considering the amount I paid for the item, it must have cost them to sell it to me   ;) 8)
