Not that I would even bother buying from this seller, but their postage charges are ridiculous!
check this out and then look at their other listings?
New IKEA TROFAST Storage box, white 601.693.12
$40 postage for one plate, OMG
$50 postage for a travel mug. (More like anyone who buys this is a mug) ๐

IDIOTS because in their payment description it says an immediate payment of $4.20 is required huh
Don't they want the $40 postage?

I think there must be something wrong with the postage set up, as not only am I getting 'Postage not specified' in the search results for all of their listings, when I view a listing, it shows this in the postage section, saying 'Doesn't post to Australia', item location Sydney, and then Posts To: Australia o.O

All the ones I looked at said "doesn't post to Australia" , based in Sydney - strange, though I have heard of that before on the boards.
Edit. Maybe they don't like us Digi LOL........................

Looking at their exclusions, it shows they will only deliver to NSW and QLD metro areas, possibly because they're basically dropshipping Ikea products? I know the Ikea store here in SA doesn't deliver, anyway, which sucks 'cos I can't get there and wouldn't mind the option to buy online and have things delivered - I'm talking larger furniture items, anyway, if shipping rates were decent for larger items.
The local Amart furniture store will deliver - prices start at $80, no matter what you buy, and it'd take them less than 5 mins to get a box from their store to me.

If you purchased an item off this seller would you get the item or a cartoon image?

Late night coffee and sugary treats - I'm in the zone (albeit the slightly more jittery one).
I'll crash and burn in a moment.

There's a business opportunity for someone - pick up purchases and deliver them (for less than the shop would do it).
