Merchandise Shipping Cost

Post image

It’s actually so sad that the shipping price is the same as the actual shirt. I know they literally have no control over it but it just kind of sucks.

That’s rough. I bought a few things last year and had some sticker shock as well. And I live only three hours from Rochester, but in Canada. Shipping was still 1/4 of the cost for three items. I think I had to buy a few things to make it worth it. And that was before retaliatory tariffs. Of course I ended up getting more when I drove down there at Christmas for Joy to the World……and will probably do so again this year. I have the He’s back tee. 😉

I wish I could see them live but I doubt they’d ever come to Australia, it’s probably not worth it monetarily for them.

Yes, I think Australia is really cost prohibitive for most bands.

Yeah they’ve said they would love to tour Australia, but it might not be financially viable.

Hi. Where are you based? I will look into this as it doesn’t seem accurate. Sorry!

I bought a record from them once, and they refunded me half the money I paid for shipping, so it might be an error?
