The socks that protect iPods and Mobile Phones are just 1p from Amazon!
Not great if you are just buying them but added wit other products, to avoid having to pay delivery and seems verrrrrry good!

I couldn't find any for 1p that are being sold by Amazon themselves...only ones for 1p I found are from third parties using Amazon as a vehicle to suck punters in (& typically their P&P charges make me projectile vomit)JustWonderful wrote: »The socks that protect iPods and Mobile Phones are just 1p from Amazon!

to be fair i don't think the P&P charges are set by the marketplace sellers. The P&P is set by amazon themselves so the marketplace sellers have no choice.0 -
postage explained here, and yeah you're right, it's set by Amazon, although I cannot figure out how a 100g item costs £7 to post...to be fair i don't think the P&P charges are set by the marketplace sellers. The P&P is set by amazon themselves so the marketplace sellers have no choice.

It doesnt costs £7 to send - and nor does the item cost 1p.
AMAZON are quite rigid about the postal costs per item category - some are very expesnive - way over what it actually costs, so the sellers reduce the item price so the overall delivered price is fair.
Its quite simple really... :money:0 -
In my local poundland (Aberdeen) They have a load of official Apple accessories for ipod mini and ipod shuffle(old style) - Charging docks, lanyards etc.
They are all on amazon at £0.01 as well.
Hope this helps
