    Was looking at Smyths website toys.ie and found a product for €36.99 that I wanted to get delivered as its not so easy for me to get to one of their shops, they are charging €29.99 flat rate delivery within 7-10 days!

    I've ordered larger items from foreign countries and have had them delivered quicker and cheaper than this.... I'm kinda in shock that they feel this is a competitive delivery rate to intice customers to purchase goods online with them.

    Alot of companys charge flat rate delivery fee's, they can work out great if your buying large or many items but suck if you buy one item thats small.

    Warehousexpress for example charge a flat rate fee to Ireland of £40, dabs.co.uk used to charge £30 flat rate,

    It's pretty unfair. But big or small it's all the same price.
