Thinking of buying/building machine for PCB milling

In other news, I asked why the UK postage costs were so huge (£200) on this 3040T-DQ Router and quickly received the response:

It's a way of avoiding some of the extorionate ebay fees, as you don't get charged fees on postage/carriage, so they include the customs charges in it.

Not any more - they very recently changed the rules so sellers are now charged the final value fee on postage in addition to the final price.

You do realise fees vary depending on what country you're registered in, and to what country you're selling?

We get stung pretty hard for fees due to ebay's near monopoly in the UK. Other countries where ebay don't have as big a market share get far better rates. It does annoy me selling stuff on ebay in this country, that ebay end up with near 14% of everything by the time you factor in that they also own paypal.
