Candybee Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I went to C&S to check on the cost of buying a case of palm with shipping costs so I could update my COG spreadsheet. The wax is the same price but the shipping is now $80+ for the one case. Yikes! It has almost doubled since last year. This is why I pick up when I can instead of shipping. But $80 is just Wowee!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candybee Posted October 24, 2020 Author Share Posted October 24, 2020 Shoot I remember the days I could've bought 2 cases of wax for the price of shipping that one case today. So for 1 case of wax shipped to me would cost me $180+. It just boggles the mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Between the 50#+ penalty earlier this year, and the new “temporary” holiday increases we have to bite a big bullet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzy Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I used to get most of my waxes from C&S until they started charging insane shipping rates! I'm just a couple of states over and they want $40 ( doesn't seem like much but it used to be like 15$ ) for a 45lb case of wax!! Nope. I'm better off getting my wax from CW....and that's saying something because we know their shipping is crazy too! LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My palm comes in a 55lb case and costs $80+ to ship. You better check and make sure shipping is still only $40. I would be very surprised if it is.

LOL ok so for UPS 45 lbs now shows 27$ for shipping (which is less than it showed previously for me) and for 55 lbs it shows me 54$ for shipping. So 10 lbs more doubles the shipping which would be the added UPS fee is my guess Buuuuuut FedEx shows 74$. FedEx used to be cheapest for me from PA to CT. Soooo.....wow Edited October 25, 2020 by Lizzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzy Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Same wax...50 lb case...21.12 for shipping from CW. Both C&S and CW are in PA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Even Candlewic did away with their "shipped pricing" but all the way across country is 55. shipping. Unfortunately, they don't carry palm waxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
