Hi @Moe@COMC
Just wondering, I requested a shipment this morning of 79 cards, 75% mailbox submissions the rest purchased on comc. The cost was $35.60 for standard shipment was the one I had to choose as the express was $125. Have I missed some fine print?? About 6 months ago I shipped about 100 cards express for about $40.
Anyone else experience this price rise??
Cheers slim

Interestingly enough I was just mentioning how expensive the express option was to someone else on this site the other night. To put into perspective, you can ship a case from 12 box case DACW using UPS 2 day service for around $120.
The cost of my past three COMC shipments:
Ship Date: 5/21/2014
Shipping Cost: $166.65
Ship Date: 4/28/2014
Shipping Cost: $334.10
Ship Date: 2/3/2014
Shipping Cost: $240.40
Granted most of my cards are mailbox items but there is no way I wanted to take the risk given the value and how much money I spent on some of those cards so Express was my only option. Even so I think the rate for the Express service is very heavily inflated.

Not really. Postage should become cheaper the more you ship. If I purchased 100 cards from ebay off the same seller, I wouldn't be paying 100 * $7.00, I'd be paying a combined rate.
I purchase 100 screwdowns at a time, and it costs $56 postage here in 7 days.
And as mentioned above $120 for a case, 2 day delivery from dacardworld.

Hey! Thanks for the email, and the feedback...I did a little research on this. The Express option is the most expensive, but it also has an additional per item charge. I checked your past orders with us, and that order you're referring to was actually a Registered order that our shipping team upgraded to Express for you. That's why it was only $50 to ship those 200 cards.
I hope this clarifies things for you - please let me know if there's anything else you need.

Unfortunately I dont have any 550's and even if I did its low end that will sell for bugger all once you include shipping from Australia and 20% of anything you withdraw....Ive only got 800 ct boxes and could fill a cpl, but not at 25c a card plus shipping considering most of it is low end autos, jeseys and insets.... If I go to the states in the next cpl of years, I'll pack them and send them from there... haha!
