Some piratey behaviour by TT methinks...

edited October 2009 in Tales of Monkey Island
Extremely sorry that this is my first post but just tried to order some "pins" ( i think you'll find that they are actually badges with a type of pin attached to 'em :p (if you hadn't guessed i'm a little drunk or i wouldn't be posting this bs ), but when i went to the checkout i was shocked to find i was being asked to pay more than double the asking price. Oops i thought, must have accidentally clicked the same item twice, tried to order again and what do you know same again. Wtf i thought, how can TT ship a DVD in a case for $2.95 and yet charge $12 to ship 6 small bits of tin with a safety-pin attached, doesn't make any sense, surely such a fine company wouldn't take advantage in this way.


And sorry if i have covered old ground, but something is a bit stinky here

    I don't think they're taking advantage, there are all the tariffs and taxes involved with shipping overseas, as well as the actual delivery.

    It's the stinky, cross-eyed, meanie...

    For low cost items it is best to combine them with other items so you can save on shipping

    You gotta remember, when you buy a DVD of a game, the DVD itself is actually free, and so is exempt from taxes and whatnot.

    Clever stuff eh?
