Probably worth mentioning here that we have, in the past, tried a number of less costly shipping methods both domestically and internationally. It was AMAZING how many times boxes were lost or suffered from very long delays; I would guess it may have been as much as one in ten shipments.
Also, as we have looked at our combined packing and shipping costs over time we've lost money on average. At the moment I think we've managed to strike as good a balance as we can, and it's pretty much a break even proposition. We don't make any money on shipping and handling.
