EDIT: I'm a bit blind: You can choose the Shipping Method: 100E, 142E, 17E, 14E. It's a list a bit below.

Hi,
Yeah, i want to rant about the shipping prices from the Eve Store.. for the 2nd time!

I opened this topic two years ago: http://eve-search.com/thread/1435953-0/page/1#1
And the shipping prices really dropped significantly.

Now i tried to purchase again, and this is what i've got:


Order Contents
SKU Item Qty Total
18684 Star Map T-Shirt (Medium, Brown)
1 €17.72
11241 Guristas Black T-shirt (Medium)
1 €12.76
11266 Minmatar T-shirt (Medium)
1 €12.76
18182 Blood Raiders T-shirt (Medium)
1 €10.63
SHIPPING UPS Worldwide Expedited 1 €102.26
Edit Order
Order Summary
Subtotal: €53.86
Shipping: €102.26
Total Cost: €156.12


For an european country.

What is happening?

I feel free to explore only within boundaries.

their =/= they're =/= there

Is there a way to not have this expedited and have standard shipping. I think this is where you are getting the crazy high cost

I think you selected next day air for this as I went through the entire process and could have a shirt shipped to the US for $2.50 with the cheapest method. Hope this helps

I've only ever bought one item from there and was royally shafted with import duty and shipping. I'll never buy from there again, ever. Big smile

Edit: This was years ago when the ship models were introduced. I'm not surprised to see it hasn't changed.
