Red face XD reader

Was looking on ebuyer last night for a Xd reader,no probs there found one £5.99+vat but what got me was a £15 surcharge for P&P.So i looked at Jessops site and ready to buy an Olympus Xd reader and again £15 surcharge for P&P on top of the delivery charge of £6.99!!!.What a bloody scam!!
So checked amazon.co.uk this morning and got a Olympus XD reader MAUSB-10 for £11.24 delivered on jessops it was £39.99 + £21.99 for delivery!!!!!
Hope its the same item!!!.Anyone want to prove me wrong??

What about this?

http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/produ...duct_uid=54461


£7.00 + £2.74 for shipping costs = £9.74

And it reads other cards as well.

Does it have to be Olympus?

Mymemory.co.uk have a Sandisk card reader with 70% off for £4.99 + £3.95 carriage = £8.94

Thats the one they wanted a surcharge of £15 on jpor on top off the standard P&P.

Do you live outside the mainland UK then ? From what I can deduce it should be £2.74 for an item of that size and weight shipped in the mainland.

I take it you have no local computer shops near by? Maybe cheaper to go into town for one then get one posted via the internet.
