I order things online quite frequently. Since moving to the UK last year, I have been using Amazon.co.uk for most of my purchases. I did a search for some photo mats the other day. In the search bar I typed in "photo mats/UK"
It took me to Amazon and I found some nice ones there. They were fairly cheap too. So I did a 1-click purchase. Much to my horror later, I received an email confirmation later showing the price of the mat to be $6.99 and the shipping to be $145.00!!! I had purchased from Amazon.com and not Amazon.co.uk. This is a 16 X 20 piece of cardboard for crikes sakes. I called Amazon as quickly as possible only to be told they could do nothing to stop the order. I called the bank to stop the charge going through only to be told I could only contest it once the charge appeared on my statement. Of course, by then, the item would have already been shipped and even if I got a refund for the product, I would not get a refund for the shipping. I am really upset over this stupid and costly mistake. I will no longer buy anything from Amazon.com after learning they have no buyer protection at all.
