I would be glad to get a lower cost for shipping ....if I really wanted I can re- bundle the contents myself.
I am now with you! I just received a package shipped from bevfabriccrafts in which were two square omnigrid rulers. One ruler was 9 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches, and the other was 4 inches by 4 inches. It was shipped in a box that was 18"x24"x18" !!!!! The shipping was over $8.00. I didn't pay attention to the shipping cost at the time I ordered, and boy did I pay big time. I will never order from this outfit again. It's my own fault, I agree, but an outfit that pulls that kind of rip off is no better than a thief.
