What the hell? $37 shipping for Vault 4

What is up with this? It used to cost about $10-15 to ship an LP from the Ten Club to Europe. Now it is $37!!!

    Dude when's the last time you went to the post office.

    This is a three vinyl set.
    Next your moan about the customs charge.

    Dude, actual USPS first class cost $24. USPS priority international $36 6-10 day delivery, 10 club $37 up to 2 month delivery.

    Dude, I get lots of double LPs and box sets from the states. They don't cost this much. Plus, dude, the shipping for Vault 3 was a hell of a lot cheaper.

    The real issue is that you pay shipping as well as custom tax since 10c doesn't put "gift/promotional merchandise" like Nugs

    Except once USPS packages hit the border it's no longer in their hands, it gets transferred to the shipping address by another shipper.

    I ordered Live - Throwing Copper pinkpop edition from The Netherlands and it took well over a month to show up, and shipping to the US was around $50. It goes both ways...

    Can anyone remember how much the shipping cost was for Vault 3 vinyl to Canada? I can't remember. The shipping / packaging on the vinyl was A++++.

    Anyone ask the ten club about what's driving the cost? Or just go straight to the boards for some good ol' TC member speculation?

    Hey, it costs me 62.99 to ship to Florida. Why should have have to pay 99 cents more than NY?

    USPS costs have gone way up as their reliability continues to plummet. It sucks, but not 10C's fault.

    To be precise it was $37.49 for shipping and seems a bit high... on the other side of this... This is a 3LP 180 G pressing with heavy duty packaging to add on with the weight. I bought Audioslave Out On Exile 2LP Blue Vinyl and shipment costs was $23. International member here and I am delighted to have per-ordered the Vault #4... can't wait to spin this :)

    A 1lb package, with value set to $50 sent via USPS to Canada shows this for shipping:

    ircalc.usps.com/MailServices.aspx?country=10054&m=6&p=1&o=0&MailingDate=8/11/2014&MailingTime=8:00%20AM&dv=50.00

    Don't forget you have to factor in their time to package as well, even then, $40 shipping to Canada seems pretty reasonable.

    I live less than 10 miles from PJ headquarters and shipping is $13. Also had sales tax, which only WA residents have to pay.

    Media mail for one record is usually under $4 in a record mailer, so 10c pricing makes sense as long as it's packaged like vault 3.

    It is what it is. 10c shipping has been a hell of alot cheaper than most companies in the US for a good few years now.

    Postage generally has got a lot more expensive recently. Couple of weeks ago it cost me £20 to ship a poster from UK to France.

    But they aren't USING UPS to ship to Canada! You forget that little bit of information. It's standard SHITTY innovations which takes a MINIMUM of 10 weeks to get here - IF it gets here at all!
    I had a terrible time getting the Lightening Bolt LP through them. (not 10C's fault)

    If the shipping is too much don't buy it. If ten club listed the record for $90 and free shipping would people complain

    Why are we talking about UPS when they aren't using UPS to ship to Canada. For Constitution Hall. That day I ordered a T-shirt, the Constitution Hall CD and Vinyl. Total shipping was $4.26. Now I'm not saying that the shipping on this should be that low. I fully expected around $20. $37.49 is just extortion IMO. Especially for a shipping company as unreliable as Innovations.

    Yes they are using UPS.

    UPS handles the package from 10Cs' doorstep to the destination country's customs hub, where it's then picked up by the destination country's postal service for delivery. Mail Innovations isn't a company, it's the name of the service offered by UPS.
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    100pacer it says standard international shipping when I ordered. Not UPS. Did I misread or something? To me if it's UPS it should say UPS right?
    And for the record, when I receive stuff supposedly from innovations, I get it from Canada Post. (at the closest postal outlet - and I have a UPS outlet in my neighbourhood too)
