    Thanks Megan..I use 1-click all the time, can't say I've noticed an undue delivery charge but will watch out.
    Slightly off topic, a local shop wanted £2 for a stylus pen...Amazon sell them quantity 10 for 52pence FREE delivery....and coming from China.

    Don't see why this is an "issue" the terms and conditions are clear and presumably many of those who are in such a rush they are using "one click" wouldn't want to wait the extra time for free delivery (which seems to be more like 7 to 10 days at the moment rather than the 3 to 5 quoted in the article).
