Sorry, yes, those are the two obvious approaches, and if orders generally can be bulked to post, then the amazon model is more like the real price. Though they sell books originally where a few extra pounds on the typical cost is more % than on a typical DVD. I don't know which I prefer; now I'm used to it I don't care, but at first I felt annoyed by a delivery charge and found a fixed price pleasingly simple. OTOH I feel diddled if I buy lots of stuff and it comes in a big box and I think there should be a discount. Maybe *that*'s a trick: have a fixed price, but have a small discount for large orders :) I want 2% of your savings if you agreed and it works :) Not that it would, you can only save a little bit on postage really.
You said all that more succictly with "ooh shiny" :)
But the point was, I thought you said there was a tax hole for orders under £18 or something? Doesn't that mean things need be ordered separately, or did I imagine that?
