Hi Dimo,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We do charge postage separately from our product prices. This approach allows us to keep prices fair for customers who prefer to collect or store items with us, rather than including delivery costs for everyone.
We are aware that some competitors advertise “free delivery” by building the cost into their product pricing. While our postage is shown separately, we always aim to remain competitive overall when comparing total costs.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, and your feedback is really helpful for us as we continue to review our pricing and service.
Kind regards,
The Chards Team
