17.99 for shipping SE? Really?

I'm even more happy I decided I didn't need no stinking statue. Canada has so many inflated costs for things.

SEs online store isn't exactly what I'd consider a major business, but it's also not something you'd see as an actual physical store (like you would in Japan). The goods are generally shipped from Japan and have very small business transactions internationally, which is why they incorporate costs and likely why they don't have a (good) partnership deal with national shipping carriers. While that may or may not be the case with Heavensward CE items and the like, they likely have to deal with high shipping costs on their end despite that possibly being the case. I'm sure they're overpricing some of the goods, but without a partnership deal of sorts (the sort of thing you see most major online stores have), you generally will see high shipping costs.

This is what I wanted to say. Canadians are getting gipped.

Are you talking about the Collector Edition Box? The Box is huge and is very heavy. I'm surprised it cost that low actually for Shipping.

The website says shipping all purchases over $100 is free... what?!

This isn't an issue of your country of origin, its an issue of inflated shipping costs no matter where you're at...

Fine print says not on preorders.

They skirting their policy by saying pre-orders don't count.

I preordered and will hope that ebgames or amazons canadian sites gets the CE if they do I am very much cancelling it from the SE store because its looking like its going to be around $180-190 USD so after exchange rate and import fees since this will undoubtedly be hit by customs I am looking at probably close to $250-275 for a $130 product
