Rant: Vendors should think about free shipping

[cooleql]

I have spoken to some vendors and everyone is charging $40-$60 for shipping citing minimum weight for shipping carrier. However , e-commerce sites like Temu and Aliexpress have free shipping for orders for ~$10, albeit it takes 10 - 15 days to get delivered . To entice more folks, they should really think about free shipping.

Agreed! I’ve placed four orders in two weeks and paid $40/order. It’s the sales they throw out, you just can’t pass them up, but, the shipping put a hold on a couple orders.

I've placed 2 orders in promos, both of which were with free shipping thanks to either a kit MOQ or a dollar amount minimum.

Just gotta be on the look out.

But those promos are few and far between.

Also the promos are on regular Triz and Sema products, never on SS or BPC or other research products.

There’s been promos on all sorts of peptides this month with free shipping. You just have to pay attention and pull the trigger quickly.

those promos are nearly every day and for lots of different peptides. also everything is negotiable.

QSC just had a BPC/TB promo. Ofc its sold out now. Helps to be on one of their chat servers so you see them as soon as they post.

I agree about the free shipping, it seems the exorbitant shipping cost is designed to nudge you into buying multiple kits to offset it or reach the "free shipping" - AKA high profit margin

There are many more variables and risks associated with shipping contraband. How much would you add to the price of a kit to use your garage as a warehouse? Or your vehicle to pick up product from ports/airports? Or you personally walking up to the counter asking to pick up that palette of "skin care products"?

on top of all that, they are going to get their desired profit either way. Adding the cost of shipping into the kit just makes everything more expensive and worse when I'm 4-5 kits at a time.
