Well ebay and shops there are a whole another thing from outside businesses having widely spread physical business franchises and online shops like Schuh or size?/JD so they aren't directly comparable.

The retail prices of supes in usual in the shops you mentioned compared to others with more expensive shipping are the same, £55-65 so I don't see any additional cost in shoe prices either.

I do know businesses often make special deals with the local post or certain couriers to get cheaper shipping costs than private persons but as I'm not a UK shop, I don't know the details. That is probably why these shops often seem to have slightly different shipping costs on their ebay accounts than at their own online shop. Schuh is one of these - they have £12 shipping on ebay but £6 at the online shop.
