Shipping Costs - Page 2

@Desertdi I also take into consideration the cost of gas and of course if I'm out and about to shop, I have lunch somewhere (add another $15 or so and tip) and I usually buy something in addition to what I'm out to get so I'm way ahead by paying shipping.

@KathyM23 "Reasonable" ships costs do not bother me either. To schlep to my favorite mall, find a space, walking, not finding what I want, bathroom break, buying a Cinnabon, lol because there is no way I'm not buying a Cinnabun, schleping all the bags to the car, and making sure no one is following me. Then the drive back home on the highway.Not even to mention the gas expended.

So, nah, I'll pay the reasonable shipping. I feel that it is the price of doing business with online purchases. But I will say that I would never pay the sky high shipping on D & B bags. To me, that is crazy. I have other places on line to buy one of my favorite handbag line.

95+% of whatever I buy online is from Amazon. For me the prime pays for itself, and throws in free movies to boot. Most of what i buy are things for our home or property uses.

My wife buys from so many different places, Online and local stores and shops of all kinds.

As a prime member, I prefer their zero shipping costs.

Oh, you're paying for those shipping costs one way or another. Usually Prime items cost more.

@RainyDayGal , I always do my homework when I shop. Sometimes Amazon is the cheapest and other times it's not. I have found that to be the case with prime items as well. I don't see where prime items are more expensive.

I do agree that we are still paying for shipping costs. Just all up front by way of the prime membership.
