It's all quite confusing, we have this problem when ordering lots of things but Amazon was the only one to tack on high shipping so unexpectedly.

Thankfully, I asked my uncle (who lives in the US) about it and he hadn't ordered his grandson's birthday gift yet (his birthday is in August). We agreed to go halfers on it since it applies for the promotion. So I'll be getting my code, no shipping involved, and my cousin's son gets an early birthday present. ^.^ I think it all worked out pretty well.
Turns out it'll be around 6$ USD of shipping fees for me. Glad it worked out well for both of us
