Only people that I know that have to pay shipping are international subs (like myself) where we have to pay extra for each piece we order from the member store, even though they do come with our already fairly expensive member package ($33 USD / $43 CAD); so I'm curious to know where those charges came from.

zdkaiser Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I am a crate member. Will I have access to the BBNG album on July 18 or will I have to wait until next month? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! It should be there. Well's Fargo was in the last month's store so I assume BBNG will be there, but you get it a month after the member do.

There is a lot of overhead with running the business, including the store, forums, and working with distributors / getting things pressed; so I feel that is where the $6 goes (as well as trying to ensure all members don't just jump on a Crate membership that is free). A lot of people justify the $6 as the shipping fee so I can definitely see where you are coming from. hammertime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are crate, you aren't necessarily ordering the AotM. In fact, you probably aren't or why wouldn't you just get that AotM and avoid the 6 dollar fee... They almost always ship both store purchases and the AotM together, thus, you could view it as paying $21 for the AotM plus 6 dollars shipping for it and whatever other purchases you make that month. It's WHY they ship everything together. If you are only buying from the store via a crate then, yes, that six dollars is basically your shipping fee. That, and as somebody else pointed out, you are helping pay for the overhead of their employees, ext.
