Ebuyer.com postage ?

Options
Not sure if this is the right forum but was wondering
if anyone could clarify something for me.

I have seen a optical mouse on ebuyer.com priced
at around £6.00, when I look at postage they list
a surcharge of £15.00 for postage to Northern Ireland
(where I am)!

They also have a £0.00 postage cost if you go for
longer than 3 days delivery?

If I buy said mouse am I going to have to pay the
extra £15.00 to have a £6.00 product delivered to NI?

Have I read that right? They do say on their shipping page
that they use Royal Mail and I know that RM don't charge a
surcharge for NI delivery.

Can anyone clarify this for me?

    Seems that way to me. Guess it's easier to give a blanket surcharge than calculating on an individual basis. I suppose they don't distinguish whether they are using RM or Citylink and couriers can sometimes charge a lot for NI. But reading the page overall they do seem to be set up to be very biased for mainland UK only.
