Yeah, but he'll throw in the 30 quid silencer! (For extra, obviously.)

Even at used value the PTS version of the Dead Air thing is around £70-80, so not surprised he's making that extra based on the other inflation.

Assuming they're sending it via parcelforce 48 hour service there's no way it costs that much, even with the extra insurance

It can if they're in Northern Ireland. Why when i'm including P&P on sales, I specify "Mainland UK, not NI".

It's not part of the Mainland as far as RM is concerned.

PF applies a 70-150% Surcharge on parcels shipped from Mainland to NI - i've shipped maybe 50 parcels to NI in the past 3 years, you may not think it is the case, it definitively is the case and has been the case for over a decade. 

Just like shipping to the Highland or Islands of Scotland is more expensive. They are not within scope for normal Mainland deliveries.

DPD for example, won't even ship to areas of the highlands at all.

I`ve never been charged extra sending parcels from northern ireland to mainland uk with either royal mail or parcelforce. Parcel force 48hr is the same roughly £10 to £15 depending on size and weight and royal mail small parcel tracked 48 is the standard online £3.45 price from ni to mainland uk.

I did not mention anything about how RM view anything; neither did I claim that NI is part of the mainland.  I stated that NI is part of the UK, which it is.
 

Perhaps you would like to argue with something I have actually written.
