Shipping from 10C

edited June 2009 in The Porch
This has been discussed before, but I've never heard a "reasonable" answer per se....why can certain things not be combined for shipping when ordering from the 10C? Has anybody ever received a response from someone back on this? It makes sense to me that something like the Ten SDE cannot be combined, but the Holiday Singles? How hard is it just to put two in a pouch? versus mailing two pouches? That doesn't seem very "green" to me?

Anybody know why?

    not sure. know the poster's can only be bought one per order.

    if a new fan with alot of mula comes here and wants to buy everything on the lot, it would a little confusing why he had to do a dozen order's, instead of just one huge order.

    Honestly, the posters I get - given how delicate they can be, I like getting only one per tube. But it just kills me that I have to get two pouches for the singles and then throw them away, when you could easily fit 2 or more in one pouch.

    My guess would be that they mark up shipping costs... this way, although it reads as a free single - just pay shipping, you're really paying an inflated shipping charge so they can justify "giving away" the singles. That's my guess, I could be wrong though.

    wait, let me get this straight - you recently ordered 6 or 7 holiday singles, paid shipping 6 or 7 times, and they came in a single pouch????

    It is more efficient to prep, pack and ship 1000 of the same item at a time.

    I guess so. I ordered them several months ago, before they were put on the store, by sending an email to 10c.

    That explains it. I would imagine by putting them up on the Store, they're expecting more sales (obviously), which explains the pre-packaging.

    Not to say I'm not a Simpsons fan, but it's hilarious every now and then when Santos posts info, and then someone with 12 posts disagrees, and claims Santos is wrong :lol:
