I know Palmer is in the US though (and he isn't all that far from me). That's why I'm wondering why he was seeing $15. I wouldn't pay that much either.

Let me try to find the picture of the conversation someone had with LRG support.
They said that that's what it would cost just to ship the playing cards.

Ok, so the dude is from the U.K.

But still, being charged more for something you've already payed for with shipping, I believe is against the law.
That would be like buying a car and having it trailered to your house and you get in to find that there is no steering wheel. So you call up the dealer and they say, "Oh, well the steering wheel wasn't finished being made, so if you want it we are gonna have to charge $40 to ship it to you."

From what LRG told me, they don't even handle shipping themselves, a separate entity does that. USPS cost is not 15$, somebody in the middle probably takes a 50% cut. Not to mention that it takes between 4-6 weeks.

Lukie games can ship me games for 2$, some ebay guys for 5-7$. Nothing explains the 15$ except the man in the middle, just like the eBay Global Shipping Program.

One of the most expensive places to ship to is the UK. Japan is high on the list as well.

It's probably pretty close to $15 TBH.

Yeah, that sucks. I bought The Swindle and Dear Esther along with my free pack of trading cards and paid $5.50 shipping. And I live like 4 hours from you, or something like that.
