That is so expensive, I cant believe people actually pay that. I am lucky I have a friend who lives across the boarder, so I was able to get a lot shipped to her

probably duty/brokerage fee is included there, or it better be! LOL. Either way, the cards are very very cute, but I wouldn't pay that.
I'd email them and say for $XXX shipping I'll buy the product. What's to lose? They say no and it's done. I have found from experience, shipping is somewhere companies make alot of money. They might reduce to gain your business.

i hate when companies overcharge for shipping. it's insane.
however i've ordered notecards from thre. one pack and it was only $7.00 for shipping and i think the highest was $30 something for overnight.
Are you sure you didn't do something wrong with checkout?
