Damn I ordered some stuff from them last week and it cost the usual £12 for postage :sad: Good to hear they’re reducing it though as it put me off ordering small quantities

International freight is bonkers ATM.

They wanted nearly £300 to ship an exhaust system. Last one I bought cost £90.

Yep.

Pre-covid, we were paying around £1200 to bring a 40 foot container from China to UK. Currently it's around £10000. This has just killed off a product I've spent over 3 years and several thousands of pounds developing.

It's a nightmare at the moment.
