Why does a tiny paper thin item that could easily be shipped in a plain envelope with a postage stamp cost $3.50 to ship?!

Have you ever found any shipping and handling charges (other than services such as Amazon Prime that include free shipping, of course) that were lower than $3.50? Whether or not it represents the shipper's true costs, it's what the market will bear.

Most likely the manufacturer's pricing of the filter along with postage and mailer bring the price to around $3.50. If you return the filter Kaffeologie has covered their costs and will trash the filter.

No it is a lot less. Check and see who is selling the item, they could be selling it cheap and trying go make up the difference with the shipping.

Good Morning, We have it listed for $40 which includes postage right now. So, if that is good for you you can buy it. Thanks, Heith

Shipping is only .50 cents. The shipping will actually cost us more than that, but that is what we charge on all of our listings.

Yes, ultimately it would be cheaper... Unless they were all large items...but if I can put them all in one of USPS' prepaid shipping boxes, then definitely.

i would probably use a box.. it's not the envelope that will be the problem necessarily, but the way the postal people handle it, it is sure to get broken :(

Certainly, with proper address and adequate postage... But this doesn't mean it is smart to do so. Keep in mind they are transparent, so the contents of the envelope will be visible to people you don't even know! And the envelope doesn't seal closed.

There is no reason for such large shipping charge. Is either a mistake or overcharging from seller

ebay shippers use USPS flat rate box for 70lbs max for $18.00. The others - greed.

I normally receive in a usps thick envelope. I don't think there is any deliberate method...

The platform is very small. A package or envelope would have a hard time balancing on it I would think.

BS The shipping is inflated to save money on Amazon listing fees. . This 25 pound package can ship via USPS priority shipping for $16.80

i just sent email to seller asking if i would really be expected to pay 15.00 to ship 3 of these cards. Will see if I get answer. Either way I will not pay that much to ship something that weighs so little.

The model is only a couple pounds. I don't know why the shipping weight would be so much.

Should be no problem. I did not do that but did include a folded 8 1/2 x 11 paper with instructions with the CD. Postage was 87 cents each, probably a few cents higher now. Do not let USPS charge you for parcel post rates. The size and shape allows for first class postage for rigid envelope. Mine weighed less than 2 oz. Parcel post was something like $2.39 each.
