[WWI] ot: Ebay shipping costs

[Andy Bannister]

That's extortion Magnus! I don't mind paying a bit extra for postage, especially if I got a good deal on the kit but 12 quid is outrageous. It's never cost me more than about 8 or 9 pounds to send from the UK to anywhere in the world, let alone to Europe. I would complain to the guy and if he doesn't respond leave him negative feedback.
