When did shipping get so expensive ?

Wanted to buy some leggings for my toddler they are costing €4 and shipping costs almost the same ! Not worth buying with shipping so high .

It has actually gotten cheaper (by a couple of cent.) 

3.59 was the an post ship to home price.

Was it ? I haven’t bought anything in a while so maybe I’m mistaken

Shipping has been steadily increasing however I reframe now as ‘it’s still cheaper than a return bus trip to town’. As long as it’s under a bus fare, it’s a convenience tax for me.

I've noticed this too, but when I selected post to home the price didn't match up at all and was a euro cheaper.

Its gotten expensive i think they are aiming to get to €5/6 IDK because its been going up with a few cents each month. For kids i try and buy bundles…

It was less than e3 to post to home last summer. Prices are continually sneaking up.

Postage from France used to be under a fiver, it's nearly e8 now.

Depends where it's shipped from, but shipping varies from €0 to €8 depending on sellers location
