dani_r Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Just went to the Blitz website to look at ordering some new exhaust gaskets for my new Nur Spec and when it came to check-out time I was greeted with these outrageous postage charges! Can someone please explain to me how they can justify these charges? They would fit in a small envelope and cost £1 to send in a jiffy bag! Some people take the p*ss:complain: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatSport Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 If these are for 2.5 or 3" bore i`m sure i got some off Chris Wilson in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Its probably being sent recorded/special delivery, plus the cost of the jiffy too. Hardly 'outrageous'. Maybe 'a little bit high' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 pretty much standard shipping. Its an online shop which doesnt differentiate between that and an airfilter etc. Try buying IT stuff from people like Insight, standard charge of £10 on everything, even a £2 connector. Give them a call and see if they can ship it cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dani_r Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 I think I'll try Chris Wilson then and see if he can sort me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewie Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Yah tight wad! Why don't you jump in your Supe, get on the next ferry over to the mainland and collect them. Not so expensive now is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefgroover Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 £7.50 you can have RM special delivery insured for £2.5K by next day noon for that. I doubt thats what they are using lol. Maybe they courier everything? if so its not a pro customer policy. Some companys thrive on what they make out of post fee's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranz Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Send them an SAE with a cheque to cover the cost of the part. Then you don't have to pay any postage to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Prob cheaper than you driving there to get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dani_r Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 Yeah, by quite a lot! :blink:The cost of the boat just to get to the UK is £208 with car, plus fuel, food, more car bits! more food (Burger King is a must when travelling to the UK as we don't have one over here!)
