I agree.
My casual shop at home buying as gone down to zero since they introduced
this.
I am not paying £2.95 shipping for a £1.99 product.
Some points
1. shipping is usually based on weight, not cost of product. Why should
an expensive, but light product cost more to ship, or vice versa? Lego
don't pay shipping based on cost of product, so why do they charge me
like this? Why should very low cost, very low weight accessory packs
cost £2.95 to ship? This is as much as the cost of the accessory pack.
But I can't buy them in stores can I?
2. Who's idea of 'priority' is "Priority Shipping: In-stock orders are
shipped within 24-36 business hours after they are received, and you can
expect your order to arrive within 3 to 6 business days."?
So priority can take 8 days? My definition of priority is noon next day.
And for Lego's shipping rates I would expect that.
3. Most other e-commerce sources I use have much more competitive
shipping rates. Or free.
4. shop at home stock 'exclusive' product that they refuse to sell via
stores. Then charge me through the nose for shipping.
The Santa Fe was the 1st thing I have bought in months, due to its
numbered exclusivity.
