In future, if I encounter this same situation again I think I'll throw the "honesty is the best policy" out of the window and just hope that I don't get caught out.

So really you did throw 'honesty is the best policy' out the window and you did get caught out.

The postage thing happens a lot on here though, it seems to me that a big reason for prices creeping up is that the same things get sold over and over again on here. So with each person adding their little bit of postage and before long its doubled in price![]()

- Keep commentary on pricing to a minimum - the value of retro parts is very subjective.
