Definitely a turn off for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-278062 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 10:28:48 +0000 birdofafeather 278062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i hate paying for shipping! that being said, if i find a deal on something (contact lenses this morning!) and it works out on a per item basis to be cheaper, i'll just suck it up and pay for shipping. but that is rare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-278047 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 10:21:08 +0000 LittleFox 278047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely. I buy mostly from Amazon and do free super saver shipping. If the product comes from another seller and I have to pay shipping, I usually don't buy it unless the shipping is reasonable ($5 to ship a $5 charm seems like a scam to me- and why can't multiple charms go in the same envelope?). We even kept our Amazon baby registry to only items that ship from Amazon and are eligible for free shipping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-278039 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 10:16:41 +0000 Goldilocks1107 278039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep - if it's not free shipping, odds are I won't buy it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-278001 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 10:00:14 +0000 banana 278001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>that's why I love amazon prime. free shipping, free returns and no tax! my brothers signs up for prime and he adds me As a member so it's totally free for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277943 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:39:02 +0000 BananaPancakes 277943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I almost never purchase online if I have to pay for shipping. And I think some places have the most ridiculous shipping costs ever. Pottery Barn is the worst. It's like $20 to ship a pillow case. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277925 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:30:04 +0000 yin 277925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tend to shop at sites that have free shipping and free returns. I feel pressured to spend $50+ for free shipping on sites like diapers.com, and I hate it. My usual go to sites would be Amazon and Target (free shipping with Target cc + 5% off all purchases). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277874 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 09:05:05 +0000 sorrycharlie 277874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'll definitely skip an item because of that. babysteals gets me all the time, it's so depressing when an item is a great deal but I have to pay the same in shipping! forgettttt it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277846 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:52:56 +0000 Mrsbells 277846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm glad I'm not the only one </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277844 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:51:35 +0000 MamaBehr 277844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm more likely to buy something if it has free shipping and no tax. If I have to pay for shipping I think twice before buying it, especially if I'm paying tax as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277842 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:49:42 +0000 PurplePumps 277842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I hate paying for shipping and rarely buy something online unless I can get free shipping and free returns cause its even worse when you have to pay shipping, then decide you dont want it and have to pay to ship it back! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277840 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:49:04 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 277840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is why I don't usually buy online. If I can buy it in the store I will. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277829 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:44:41 +0000 hilsy85 277829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes! I hate paying for shipping, period. On etsy, I will search elsewhere for a product to find a seller with cheaper shipping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277827 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:43:36 +0000 regberadaisy 277827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup! If it's no longer a good deal due to shipping I don't buy it.<br /> I forget if it's babysteals or babyhalfoff that's notorious for that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shipping-costs#post-277822 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 08:42:46 +0000 Mrsbells 277822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do shipping costs ever turn you off from buying certain products? I just decided to buy the camera charm posted by Mrs Bicycle on the blog and it cost $4.99 and the cost of shipping is also $4.99. Thats kinda bizarre to pay 5 dollars to ship such a teeny charm. I thought the shipping price might even out if I bought more items but basically unless I spent $50 I dont qualify for free shipping and when I tried to order 2 more charms the shipping cost went up to about $9. So I guess I wont be buying this charm then lol </p>
