Anyone else noticed the ridiculous £11.98 shipping charges?

 

Had a basket full of tat, went to check out and hit with a ridiculous shipping charge. Nope. Only a £50 order but not making it £62 for the sake of it 

 

One way to put people off. Don't mind paying for shipping but that price takes the pee.

Ordered 5 pairs of socks for £10 and shipping was £5.99. Factoring it in to the overall price made it feel better

Were you not still saving money at £62?

 

anything heavy/bulky?

I won't pretend it wouldn't annoy me too, but isn't this just a factor of not paying RRP and getting "free postage"?

The shipping charges scale based on what you buy, usually based on weight. 

If you have a lot of stuff, it costs more to ship, so shipping costs more.

Socks, sunglasses and a multi tool.

To be fair I've saved £62 by seeing my arse

2 x 5.99 = 11.98 so my guess is a weird mistake resulting in shipping being added twice. Clear your cookies/use an incognito tab and try again?
