FYI, after I ordered 6 oz from Heavenly Lamb, they emailed me and said they couldn't provide small amounts of nibs at minimum shipping cost to anyone who hadn't previously purchased a pillow from them (small business, can't afford loss, etc.; that's logical) and if I still wanted to purchase, they would ship for $4.95 shipping/handling cost. I went ahead and authorized it because it's SO EASY and still cheap even with the added shipping. Again, thanks for the good tip, Melinda09.
Hi Kaye.
Well,
darn it all to heck!

I guess they caught on to us. LOL. I wonder how many vapers got their orders
through before they decided that they were going to have to add a minimum shipping/handling charge to these small orders? Can you see a cartoon bubble with the entire Heavenly Lamb staff sitting around a table, and discussing where all of these little 2-4 oz. wool nibs orders might be coming from all of a sudden? LOL. I'm sorry that it happened with your order, and sincerely hope that you're seeing a little humor in it too.
You're right that it's still a pretty good deal in the grand scheme of things - with the $$$ that we put into all of this equipment. What do you think? Should we clue them in about their new ECF market, so they can put together a bunch of small packages ... something to make it easy/cheaper for them to get them out of their warehouse?
Actually, after I completed my order and got the (small) total price, I had thought of adding a note to my order that they could ship them in a padded envelope ... didn't need to waste a box and packing materials, since I didn't care if they got squished a bit. My order came in a
big box that definitely put them in the hole, profit-wise. Then again, I didn't know at that time how big of a quantity/volume 8 ounces would be; but, I think that 2-ounces would be do-able in a padded envelope.
What do you think? Should I just leave my big nose out of it? I'm only thinking that they could decide to cut out that line item altogether, and it might be better to give them a heads-up than to lose this good supplier. From what I've read here, and PMs that I've gotten, this is very clean wool. Like I said: there are
zero sticks and what-not in my bag, and it appears very clean (not dirty or dusty) to me.
