This infuriates me about amazon. It doesn't tell you the postage until your checking out; it really needs to be clearer who you're buying from and how much its going to cost.

Each seller has different shipping rates but if you actually take a look at the shipping information of the seller it details quite clearly what their shipping rates are, before you even need to add the item to your basket never mind checkout. It also says quite clearly IMHO whether you're buying it from Amazon themselves or a 3rd party.

Yeah fair enough its pretty clear who's selling it. But I just said I found it annoying you don't know the postage costs straight away. You either have to add it to your basket or go and look at that shops details; I just find that annoying but its one of those things. My main point really was that you can't filter out things that aren't delivered by amazon so they don't qualify for free postage etc, hence postage costs that I mentioned...

Personally I don't like the way they've set up their system. It certainly would be nice to have some indicative postage comparison without having to calculate it yourself or added to your shopping basket as you go along.
