Thread: NSS-CDS Books

  1. #1

    Default NSS-CDS Books

    I know someone has to know the answer to this. I was planning on buying books from the online store but shipping is coming out to be like $12-$15. Can't they send it via media mail since I only want books? I know its setup to deal with general merchandise.

    Jim Wyatt was lamenting that the shipping charges for T-shirts and such occasionally comes out outrageously high, and if it does, contact him and he'll adjust it. So I would guess it's the same for books.

    You can PM him on this forum...

    Jim mentioned in another thread that you could just enter "Will Call" for the shipping option and they'll charge you for actual shipping.

    Hope that helps.

    How many books & which books were you attempting to buy? If you are getting 4 or 5 of the larger/heavier books that shipping fee is not out of line. It would help me to know which books so I can adjust the shipping fees on that infernal web store.

    Why can't items be shipped in USPS flatrate boxes?

    Blueprint for Survival and Articles and Opinions. Those two come out to $10 for s/h plus I haven't decided if I want to go with the Student Manual yet and that pushed it to I think around 13-14.

    When I try it from the store side as a customer having the books shipped to North Georgia the s/h is $8.95 for priority mail.If I choose express mail the shipping is $36.95.

    The $8.95 is reasonable to me.
