Sorry to here that But some companies dont class NI as the main land UK and class it as overseas, which is odd as it as UK post codes and the Royal Mail. Its away of making more money off customersMinispares charged me £25 to send a set of group 6 arches and a 5 metre arch to body strip to Northern Ireland..

Yes, you're right, it don't cost any more to send to Northern Ireland as it does to send to rest of UK by Royal Mail.
Like you said, money making. No need >

I thought i'd have a look and find a price and hey... guess what its at least
£15.36 + VAT on ParcelToGo.. and that'll take 3 - 4 days. (with DHL Sea Delivery)
And.. on interparcel.co.uk
DHL Next Day to NI will cost you 19.99 plus vat.

Well.. to be correct.. it should not cost more to send to NI but the courier could charge a levy. e.g DHL have a 'DHL BT' delivery to NI which costs more than the nomal next day services (and takes longer!)

So technically.. I should be getting back atleast £5 depending on the method of delivery..

Do Minispares even sell group 6 arches? Did you order them through a website? If so which one? I'm just asking because I wonder if it's another company - I know when I was looking into group 6's I couldn't find any through Minispares There is another company using a website that could be confused with Minispares due to the name.
Spot on. No they don't sell group 6 arches.
After Simon kindly contacted me about the matter, I realised through fault of my own that the matter is with 'Huddersfield Minispares' and not 'Minispares'. When HMS send emails they do so under the name, "Minispares ([email protected])". I hope you can see where my confusion was here.
I'd also like to point out that Simon kindly contacted me through his own will after seeing this thread and chased up the matter. I think this reflects positively for the real 'Minispares'. Thanks again guys, Josh.
