Man shipping is going to be killing this hobby, wonder when it will start dipping especially since gas is slowly going down.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I feel like the hike the shipping on people who order immediately. And over time, the rates go down or drop to free. A few items I've had my eye on I passed partially due to expensive shipping and when I check now, some are free, and some are 30-50% less than before.

Wow that?s a lot.
This is what I?m scared of when the tweeterhead Joker ships.

But what I want to know how is it $95? Few weeks ago I got Cap PF all in for $615. On SS he is $625.
Granted it was from a online reseller..but your telling me after they purchase from SS there is so much wiggle room they can afford that? Cap was not small.
And if that?s the case SS should start lowering cost if you buy direct. Because you know they still are making a profit selling to online resellers.
So pass on some saving to those of us keeping them in business when shipping is this crazy.

Well to be fair right now its there comic con sale, so this is when they offer the biggest discounts, then usually on black friday. If something isn't selling then they discount by adding free shipping then discounting further if still no sales.

But it does suck for those of us who buy early. We pay the most with no benefit other than if the piece sells out. I wish they could at least provide free or half price shipping if you PO early on.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
