Recently I was way overcharged by an auction house for postage but happily we came to an arrangement. However, just bought a single early 1970s prog from Mullocks and was charged over £8 for recorded postage. I've no problem with sites making a bit on top but come on.

If these sites keep charging silly money for postage I will simply stop using them and then we both lose out. An honourable exception however is Sportingold who up until now have always been very fair.

SAS are the biggest culprits, i bought a single Arsenal 30/31 home for £30 plus commission, they invoiced me for £14 postage recorded delivery, i rang them up and suggested they change the invoice or lose a customer, after a couple of minutes they said as a one off they would charge me £2, which i happily paid but they still have lost a customer.

And the best has to be Footballsport auctions, i recall postage at cost.
