That Innsmouth Look™
I've just tried to buy something costing £12 from Thomann. Deliver charge is £10.
It's this shit that lets Bezos thrive.
caskfan@zebulonmysterioso@mas.to I wanted a filter for a kettle - cost was £5, weight a few grams, postage over £5!
That Innsmouth Look™@caskfan@cupoftea.social things like that make me glad our neighbourhood hardware shop (two old guys behind the counter who can identify any item from a terrible description and can produce one from the millions of tiny drawers behind them, selling you exactly the number you need, for 50p each) still exists.
caskfan@zebulonmysterioso@mas.to unfortunately no such thing still exists near me.
