what happend to free shipping from lamonster
A guess here. A sign of the times. Prices are going up all over the place. Sometimes a dealer has to cover their costs by doing away with free amenities.
I have not verified the facts on the Lamonster site as actual.
I placed an order ($65) on Nov 26th and the shipping was free.Quote:

Shipping costs can be highly variable percentage of final cost on per item basis. It costs less to ship a small higher priced item than to ship a larger and heavier item. And then when you factor in multiple items in one package the per item share really varies from one order to the next. So when it comes to calculating cost and profit on a specific item, free shipping really complicates the calculation.
Was just looking on Lamonster website. It shows free shipping at checkout.
Made a purchase today. Free shipping
We bought 2 oil change kits from Lamonster, paid shipping on each kit , around $30. bucks total shipping. I know these kits are bulky and heavy, kind of spendy, but what isn't when it comes to these toys. Not all of their products are free shipping.
With the cost of shipping something heavy these days, I don't know how anyone's giving free shipping anymore!! I was trying to get rid of a seat for a RTL, they wanted $174 to ship it out!!
I found out its oil change kits that are not free shippingQuote:
