It makes sense that a company should charge for the direct cost of the package to ship in and the cost of mailing. But handling costs are ridiculous. Shops don't charge you extra to put your stuff in a bag, which is handling too. I will not order from a store that appears to be trying to profit on the S&H.

I think we need to rebel a little with S&H charges! Not only boycott...but send written messages to companies that charge an outrageous amount! Many companies are struggling and need to hear from us that they might do better if they are more reasonable! Try emailing and see if you get any satisfaction!
