What's with the outrageous shipping rates at Excalibur? $3 per title? C'mon!

And that's the cheapest option from them(Priority Mail).
Some stores in our price search have phenomenal prices on individual titles but when you factor in other items like shipping and sales tax (where applicable) they don't always seem like such a great deal.
The best way to be sure before placing an order is to use our [url=459892] Comparision Cart feature </A. (The link to the comparison cart page is at the bottom of the [url=466225]View Basket</A page). The order comparison includes shipping, free shipping programs and sales tax (you have to set your state on the [url=466226] Set Preferences </A page if you want tax to be calcualted).
If you want to use the price search comparison cart feature just add a few items to your comparison cart by clicking the add to cart icons for a title or . You then click the to view the items in the cart and adjust quantities if necessary. When you are ready to compare the total cost of an order click the "Compare Order Cost" link on the view cart page. You might be surprised.

This is ludicrous. I've been trying to warn people about this scam for two years! I can understand the reasoning behind it when Laser Disks were more available, but shipping 3 DVDs would probably be cheaper than shipping 3 Videos, so it can't be anything but a surcharge to pad the price.
Excalibur will ship free to US cusotmers if you order $100 of videos, which is great. But you can't order $100 of DVDs and get the same deal. It's $3 gouge each title. I've bitched about it and haven't ordered anything from them when I found this out the hardway. Avoid them
