5 blackberry storm screen protectors, .22 cents each, smaller and weigh less than a baseball card... - $1.10 Shipping - $14.90 Order - canceled WTF do they think this is, shipping over the price of a .44 cent stamp and they can kiss my ass, yea I'm gonna pay 1400% more than my purchase to ship something smaller than a pack of baseball cards.... Amazon, go fuck yourself.... carry on... |

If you look over at the buy button you will see that it is not from Amazon it is from one of the companies that sell through them.
I have learned in the past not to buy anything from there that isn't direct from Amazon. Amazon's shipping rates are mostly fair,the other companies that sell through them will bend you right over,and they ship slowly too. |
|
Check the page you found the item on... Was is being sold by Amazon or "offered by" someone through Amazon? I've never had a problem with their shipping rates.
ETA: Here's a three pack for $3.00 after shipping. |

If you don't get free shipping from an Amazon vendor, pick another vendor. shopping FAIL. If you want to bitch about shipping, start with Midway USA. Didn't they institute a USPS flat rate shipping option? I've been waiting for them to let me order more than one 500 ct box of Dynapoints (backordered) per order. If I combined the Dynapoints with other items in stock they'd ship them separately and rape me with shipping charges. I figured 4 Dynapoints and flat rate would be fairly reasonable.

I bet that the order isn't even fulfilled by amazon but by some other vendor. Also they have free shipping for stuff over $25. And if you have prime like me, 2 day is only $2.99 You=fail Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile Prime = 2 day shipping free, overnight is $2.99 |

Quoted: 5 blackberry storm screen protectors, .22 cents each, What would possess someone to place an online order for $1  If you want to pay for shipping in an envelope with a stamp... you go to ebay, and sort by lowest price + shipping and the cheapest options will show first. Other than that... You + Shopping = FAIL. |

Quoted: RANT FAIL, OP FAIL, AMAZON WIN!  +1 Ranting about being too lazy to get off your ass and visit the local Target, Best Buy, Walmart, Super Walmart, Super Fucking Target, or <insert another 10000 stores here> then it's your issue. Tell you what. I'll buy the screen protectors and drive it to you at cost. You pay my gas and any parts or labor I need on my SUV (It's a Lincoln Aviator so you are probably ok) and we will figure what shipping really is. I wont even bother to charge you for my time. You couldn't afford it. |

You cannot ship Ammo USPS. |

Probably coming from someone other then Amazon, other merchants do sell on Amazon.com
I always have the option of free shipping when I buy form amazon, I don't know if you have to pass a dollar limit threshold, but regularly on orders of 30-40 dollars I get free shipping. |

they did you a favor, those cheap screen protectors are complete and utter fucking garbage. Get an Invisible Shield, yeah its more money but it'll last. F4Squid knows what he's talkin about. I will ONLY put an invisible shield on anything I own. That whole taking the sharp edge of the key to the screen with force is NO joke. Shit really works. |

That thing is great. |

Amazon Prime FTMFW My brother just used the "create your ring" feature from amazon for an engagement ring. He got the ring appraised for insurance purposes. The appraiser said it was worth twice what he paid for it. He told me he got the feeling that after he left she went immediately to amazon to start buying rings  |

You + Shopping = FAIL. well the Verizon store wants $13 for a 3 pack so I figured I'd just order it online for cheaper and I realize I can get it elsewhere online cheaper, I just thought it ridiculous to be charged a $15 flat rate for shipping of something that only costs $0.44 cents to ship... |
