    great idea, d keep it going and well done
  • Baker Ross which sells craft stuff for kids adds £4.00 onto their postage to NI addresses. Not sure if they use Royal Mail or a courier.:confused:
  • http://www.bakerross.co.uk/ added to the RED list
    I used to have a signature with links to the League Tables for good/bad shipping charges for Northern Ireland. But I have since learnt that this is against site rules - so they are no longer here! PM me if you need them

    One for the green list:

    https://www.posterXXL.co.uk

    Good prices, good quality product IMO, prompt service, courier delivery and no extra charges for us. Why can't the rest of them be like this???

  • Great idea!

    One definitely for the red list

    http://www.morgan-auction.co.uk/HowItWorks/delivery.aspx

    No matter what you buy (memory card to a pc) N.I delivery is £50
    The memory card for example is £4 within the mainland.

    and one for the green list -

    http://www.247electrical.co.uk

    Whilst they offer free mainland delivery, I was charged just £7.99 delivery for a 42" plasma TV (came next day with a free surround sound DVD system) and they are the cheapest I could find

    For the red list

    https://www.thebookpeople.co.uk

    They charge £3.50 for delivery in the UK, but add on an additional £3.50 surcharge for NI.

    I thought it would be possible to get around this by going through their "Irish" site which is accessed through the above web address. Surprise surprise its a pseudo Irish site ie just the usual UK site but in Euros. Orders come from the UK mainland and delivery to NI is still quoted in sterling and is still the same rip off £7.00. Very Irish indeed.
  • added all of morgan 247electrical and thebookpeople to the red list.
    Even tho 247 only surcharge a bit they still surcharge so i cant in all fairness put them in the green list.

    Im astounded that morgan feel they can get away with ot justify this... it puts them in the #1 spot by a country mile.

  • Another one for the red list -

    https://www.dabs.com

    Add £11.75 to whatever 'mainland' postage rate applies to deliver to N. Ireland

    Yet the same surcharge to deliver to the Republic is £6.05?

    For the green list -

    https://www.mattressman.co.uk

    Free delivery to N. Ireland and excellent customer service
