how much can something like that WEIGH, for the shipping to cost so much?
i hate things like that. i mean, i just got a bunch of books. they were all from second had books stores, and so in general (from the B&N website, so everything is linked and easy to find an all) i would buy a book for a dollar and spend 4 to have it shipped. which is still cheaper than buying the book for 25. BUT, if i go to mail the same book, it costs me about a dollar and a half (and please not, it would be cheaper if i mailed it at book rate, which i don't do i certify EVERYTHING so i can track). so why am i being charged 4 dollars? it's all stupid, and i have come to the conclusion that everyone is underpricing stock to convince people to buy it, and the making their actual profit off of the shipping. and that seems to be very deceitful, a deceptive business practice. i don't know why it's happened. or how to fix it. sigh.
