What happened to shipping costs?!

[MisterBaker]

Wasn’t sure if this was the proper thread to ask in but it does pertain to pipe smoking, so I figured here was as good a place as any.

A while back, earlier this year, I placed an order for 6.5lbs of tobacco. During my blending adventures I’ve recently completely depleted my perique stock, so I figured I’d just replenish everything all at once. The shipping was $17 for ground shipping, now I’m looking at $60

$60 for which shipping option? I just paid $23 USPS Priority for 5.5lb to Florida.

Sorry it’s taken me so long to get back to you. I just popped back on WLT to grab a photo. When I posted, my only two options were ‘Priority’ and ‘Local Pick Up’. The ‘UPS Ground’ option is back up! Whew! I was pretty bummed out there for a minute thinking I was going to be SOL for a while.

Hey, Bob! Just wanted to say that your books, along with the wealth of information on this forum is what really inspired me to take the plunge and start blending. I appreciate you making those accessible!
