Hows this for a rip offHi All,
I looked at a leading retailer for some Peco N gauge rail joiners ( 3 packs) i went to the checkout to find the postage is £5.00 for them 
Think i'll be soldering brass strips to the rail ends at that postage cost

Hi Adamrules,

Ohh, never used them before. I tend to use Hattons or some of the ebay shops and indapentant sellers.

Must be a glitch on the checkout. Normal p&p there is £4.00 for UK and £5.00 for overseas.
There's a note in the shipping charges which says, "Where an order is for just one or two small items, postage may be reduced to £2.00."
Maybe they think you're a damn Yankee Nick.  I remember making a note of thier charges a couple of years ago 'cos then it was only £2.50.

Could be the case Poliss try again as cant find anyone selling them online not asking for the earth just a few bits of metal for track alignment dont rely on them for contact.

Whilst I have a flat-rack shipping charge, in this case I would have charged a pound for the Jiffy bag and the large-letter postage.

Osborns have a £2.00 shipping charge for small items, Stockton Modeller are £2.50.
I always get mine from Ebay where the postage is usually much less. e.g. item 170331010097 postage 1.10
