Standard shipping (+ tax, thanks new NY laws) was like 21.99. 2 day ship was 4.00 more.
Wow falsealarms! You paid 26 bucks for shipping? That's more than the DVD itself! I ordered over 25 bucks worth of product from Amazon and got the Super Saver free shipping, which is what I've been doing more recently. It will probably still make it here by the end of the week. If I was in your situation I think I would check the local stores, or look for a store that offers free "shipping" to one of their stores. They then allow you to pick it up at the store for no additional cost. Walmart does this with products you buy from them online. If the local Walmart doesn't carry an item, you can purchase it online and they will send it to your local store for pick up at no additional cost.
What sucks is, if you happen to go out and do a little shopping tomorrow the 26th, and come across a copy of Volume 3 of the Stooges for say, 20 bucks, you're gonna kick yourself for paying 26 dollars for shipping. Oh well, I don't mean to preach. But whenever I order something online, and I want to get it quickly, I always cringe in horror at the shipping rates. They're astronomical and absurd, and often cost more that what you are buying in the first place. Which is really hard to swallow when your wife sees the credit card bill and raises hell. "What, you couldn't wait a couple more days for that stupid DVD"! Which is why I didn't pay extra for shipping this time, and have begun to use Amazon's free shipping feature. They offer it on most items if you spend at least 25 dollars. It's a pretty good deal, and the items seem to arrive in a pretty timely manner.
