Let me get this straight he charged you P+P of £2.78 and it cost him £2.20 to post?

If that is the case I don't think you can moan about that, seems very reasonable to me.

No - sorry for the confusion.

He charged me £4.98 P&P. Actual postage would have been £2.20

The £2.78 I was referring to was the difference between what he would have paid and what I was charged.

As I said before - I wouldn't have thought twice at paying £5 P&P for two boxsets if it wasn't down to the fact that his listing stated 99p for each additional item and he charged me £3.49 for the additional item.

Oh - I didn't realise that. So it probably was more expensive then and I am doing the guy an injustice accusing him of charging me more than it actually was.

Postage to and from the Channel Islands uses the standard Royal Mail rates, not international rates.

Really? Ooops, I thought it was the same for parcels too.

Am I being a bit mean thinking £2.78 is a bit excessive for a jiffy bag and "handling" fees.

Whether or not it's excessive is not the point. The point is you were quoted one price and charged another higher price. I'd have refused to pay any more than the total of the individual postage prices as stated in the listings.
