What's going on? before I added the monitor it was £15 for delivery, but now that I've added the monitor it went up to £54.45! Have I missed something or is this just plain crazy?

But I had another monitor in the basket before (the Hyundai ImageQuest N91S 19" LCD Monitor for £165 + vat (the same price)) and the price of shipping was only £15.

EDIT: It's to mainland UK. I even tried using a different browser to check if it was some messed up cookies.

Now this is truly bizarre. I removed the Samsung SM-913N 19" LCD Monitor and the shipping returned to £15. I then added a different monitor (the Hyundai ImageQuest N91S 19" LCD Monitor for £165 + vat (the same price)) and the shipping was still £15. I then added 3 more of this monitor to the basket, and the shipping was still £15! So it can't be that it is taking up too much space.

Any ideas? Anyone else tried this to confirm?

EDIT: OK, I'll just send a webnote instead.

I am certain that I have entered the details correctly. Definately to mainland UK. I have tried it on 3 different browsers (to see if it is a cookie problem):

When I remove the monitor (or replace it with another) the shipping goes back to £15. Can someone do the same on their computer to confirm this please (using the exact same components).

 

[eatmuchpie]

Thanks gibbo, that has kinda fixed it...
but now it is £25; better, but if I remove that monitor and add 4 x Hyundai ImageQuest N91S 19" LCD Monitor (just to prove my point) then the delivery is £15. I think the weight is still incorrect.

Or maybe it actually weighs more than 4 x the Hyundai ImageQuest N91S 19" LCD Monitor, but i would hope not

 

[eatmuchpie]

OK then, thanks for the help gibbo, I suppose it is quite a lot of stuff, and the grand total comes to £700 now, which is what my friend's budget is, so everything is cool now.
