Books from Amazon...

I thought I was paying £7.26 for some books off Amazon.co.uk.

But.

Postage and Packaging alone is £22?!!!

Maybe 'cause i'm buying from multiple sellers, they're second hand see.

Is it worth buying them and paying this amount in p&p?

What would anyone else do?

I think this is a ridiculous amount of money just for delivery!!

But if i still believe you love me, maybe i'll survive.
So i tell myself you're coming home, like you've done a million times.
& if it's alright, i'll still be loving you.
'cause i can't break it to my heart.

Haha as Something Vague said, sorry I don't know your name, it must be like 8 books. I might have a look and see how much it works out if I buy them all new. How much is p&p if I buy them new does anyone know?

Lol, you really did.. £50?!



But if i still believe you love me, maybe i'll survive.
So i tell myself you're coming home, like you've done a million times.

Okay, if I buy them all first hand, it works out at £47.89. With free delivery. Bloody hell.

The world is so expensive.

Yeah I suppose. Aargh. I hate money.

I may look in Waterstones tomorrow though, when I'm in town.

Books are expensive. *sigh*

Thank you .

Compare the total price including p&p to what it would cost to buy them new from amazon where you get free delivery.

ebay might be worth checking, but do read what the postage is, as some sellers charge a lot their to make their profits.

i buy a lot of my books on ebay rather than amazon, especially fiction. occasionally things are more on ebay than even buying new (eq i was bidding on a voyager dvd that is £17 new on amazon; the auction ends tomorrow and its currently at £21.03 including postage).

it can be easy to paymore than you mean to tho, as it is an auction site and its easy to get carried away.
