$6 flat shipping is not expensive. A USPS flat rate shipping box is $5, and an extra $1 for bubble wrap and a trip to the post office is hardly gouging. I'd much prefer honest shipping charges to free shipping gimmicks where they just get their money back through higher product prices.

Besides, even if you only get 5 7.5ml bottles from VV, the cost per ml with shipping still comes out to only 56 cents. That's significantly cheaper than Strictly e juice's sample bottles even with free shipping. And the more bottles you get, the cost per ml keeps going down.

What I mean is that I often am not a fan of always having to choose the flat-rate box. This week, I ordered a PT, an atty, and some blank carts from Volcano... shipping was $3.26. If I order a couple attys, its around $1.50. If it comes to more than that, they have a flat rate option to make it cheaper.

As I said, I'm just spoiled by their shipping options and I wish everyone did that. It really makes it so much easier to order smaller quantities whenever I want them. Like when they got their PT's in stock a couple days after ordering, it didn't hurt so much to just send out another order without thinking too much about shipping.

Not to say I blame these companies for only doing flat rate boxes, I guess. Easier for them, crappier for me... but its business.
