Wasagi is a genuine guy, I'm sure he didn't set out to disappoint you but it would not be fair for him to cover the extra cost of that postage now.
I've had similar situations, I had a quote from parcel2go for my package and it was well within the weight allowance but becuase of the size (due to extra packing) it had calculated a larger volumetric weight and this made the price a lot higher.
All the best.
Steve.
Hi Pietro, I accept it is disappointing but unfortunately mistakes do happen and often the mistake is with the courier quoting people... Also, from experience with the UK post office, things get very expensive very quickly once posting over 2KG internationally.Quote:

Wasagi, could you maybe just check one last time using parcel2go, including volume details?
Id like to make myself clear here and apologise to Pietro. The postal quote I received was from parcel2go and was indeed correct for the weight dimensions. Unfortunately that would have only held true yesterday as I am off work this week so could have accepted a collection today. Sadly I received Pietros PM this morning. As I am back to work next week the only option I have is to use the post office which incurred a higher cost.
I should have made it clear this was the case, in fact I thought I did but realised I only mentioned it in my sale for the commodore gaming cases (http://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?t=8990)
I apologise for the bait and switch feeling; however, I did not intend to mislead anyone.
PTP if you are still interested please PM me
I dont think it was malicious mate :) Unfortunately posting items over 2KG outside of the UK is a killer for postage :(Quote:
