- Mon Mar 09, 2015 5:40 pm #11694 With reference to Tindie and postage charges...

The actual boards are priced fairly competitively, it's the postage charges I can't fathom...

A case in point, a board costing $3 was costing me $20 for postage, another similar board was costing $15, and yet another was costing $7, that's three different boards with three different postage charges to Ireland...

I should also add for the record, one other board that actually had the correct shipping charge of $3 (normal mail delivery 7 to 10 days).

It's a shame the postage is so over the top, I would have bought five or six of the little breakout boards and a couple of the others but I can not stand being ripped off, so I'll do without them...

- Wed Mar 11, 2015 8:44 am #11789 yup, tindie postage chargers are absurd. i think a lot of it is because most sellers are in the usa and usps sucks for international shipping. same goes for kickstarter.
