Hiya guys i dont want to start new topic just for that so i will use this thread and ask here, but first Happy Cristmas and may 2014 bring you all decks you ever wanted and then even more lol!
So my question is
How much deck of cards you can put insite Priority Mail Legal Flat Rate Envolope international15" x 9-1/2" 4 lbs max (1815~grams.)
I want to know in order to compare prices/services of usps and how much E charged me for 18 decks.
I payed 42$ for First Class but now i see they sended with Priority , which is wonderfull, but then i saw this flat rate evelope cost 24$ so...yeah need to know. I waited 22 days (2nd Deceber order, they pack and ship now...) for shipping my item and if they somehow charged me near double for shipping it just too much to take it...
The cost of the postage is only one of the costs associated with shipping a package from Ellusionist to you. People get paid to pack your stuff, suppliers get paid for providing the packing materials, etc.
As far as your package taking 22 days - you DO realize that it's the US Postal Service we're talking about, right? This is the shipping company that makes a three-toed sloth look feisty by comparison. They don't call it "snail mail" for nothing - and to put the cherry on top, you ordered during the Christmas shopping season, in a year that has the shortest possible shopping season any given year can have - only 26 days between Black Friday and Christmas Eve.
Additionally, E was rather busy and did suffer some backlog issues. Perhaps if you mention that they'll do something to accommodate you.
I know there is packaging/handling free ofcourse, but there is no way to be that much. Just no way. Impossible. It is too much. Also keep in mind that if usps wants 40$ on their site for shipping something, E would pay less for same package and then will match up usps price and add even more for fees and then will show how much u need to pay. So E is asking me for 42$, i see price is 24$ on usps, which means E probably payed 20$ and want me to give them 42...CRAZY.. this is just possibilities.. And If thats true... idk what i will do, will complain ofcourse somehow becouse is freaking too much so it got to be Box not envelope, and everything will make sense, becouse box is like 36$ or smth. and 5-6$ fee would be completely normal.
I have no problems with taking too long to ship my order becouse:
1. I can always open dispute in paypal for money back. And there is even shance i get my money back and later receive the pachage.. hehe.
2. E shipped my order with priorirty instead of first class for free...
3. E is making tons of promotion so i am still happy.
4. They even give free Treasure deck for those who waited too long.
And i still have the question.. how much deck u can put in that envelope?
@Purplelce Yes it might be a box as well.
I received few orders with envelope and every deck was completely fine. I have problems with boxes - almost everytime i have something little damaged...
