Re: candles4less
Are the votives in glass, or are we talking just candles? If they're just candles, there's no way that the entire package can be more than 5 pounds, and 5 pounds ground shipping to NY, even assuming it's coming cross country, is like 10-12 dollars to a residential address, so they're working on like 150% markup. Sorry to say...but that doesn't sound right, and sounds like they're taking advantage.
However, once glass is involved, packaging is different, and then it does get more expensive, and it would make sense for it to be $30.

Re: candles4less
the candles come with glass votives. I suppose they have to add extra packing materials to secure safe intact arrival but that seems extreme to me!
at the end of the day I needed them so whateva I guess but I just thought that was high! you should have seen the shipping for expedited service! over 100 dollars in shipping fees alone
