Its pathetic. They lower the price and jack up the postage by packaging in an oversized box filled with shredded cardboard. Make more that way than selling cardboard to recycle-rs.

Explanation of your shipping charges.
Why is the shipping costs so high £46 on two items that cost £57 (a yacht and a receiver) and are both available from the UK Warehouse which is only 35 miles from where I live?

I have experienced the same thing, and add:
the weight of the item boxes are overcharged (e.g. 1,2 kg for a 650g plane)
so that you will pay more, and more, and more.
They just catch you with low prices, and then you end paying almost double!

Why can't I pick the way I want my shipment to be, because I can only choose Fedex, which is the most expensive one?

It’s nonsense isn’t it. I get an email from them advertising a screwdriver for £10.40. It’s a good one so I click the link, sign in, add to the basket and then see £5.70 as the cheapest shipping charge??? That item would cost no more than £2 for a private individual to recorded delivery via Royal Mail. So, again, why are the charges so high?
