Kyhorse.biz's $5 Flat Rate Shipping

We are just a little "hole-in-the-wall outfit." We do not have a large warehouse or extensive buying power*. Our prices reflect an honest mark-up that we can live with. Since we cannot always beat (and have found we sleep better if we do not give it a lot of thought) the prices of our larger online and mail order competitors we have carved out our own niche as it were.

We charge $5 per order shipping. It's that simple.

• Order one widget...$5 shipping

• Order one hundred widgets...$5 shipping

• Think of it as a built-in quantity discount: The more you purchase the more you save.

There are of course certain drawbacks to this policy. 

• Because the $5 is all we get to cover our shipping and handling costs we generally try to ship all orders complete. But since we have already made it clear that all items are special order here...you shouldn't notice.

• The $5 covers shipping only to the continental United States. That would be defined as...
  

• Alaska and Hawaii usually cost us a lot more to ship to. Orders from these states can usually expect to receive an Email with a bill for additional shipping costs if the item weighs more than a pound or two or won't fit in one of their flat rate boxes.

• We just about always ship orders that weigh over two pounds via UPS or Fed Ex Ground which are just about always cheaper than USPS Priority Mail except on smaller items. If you insist on USPS shipping we reserve the right to invoice you for anything over the $5 in additional shipping costs.
  (note: if your order displays your address as a P.O. Box we will email you requesting a street address for this reason)

• We do not ship outside of the United States at this time. It is expensive and requires extra paperwork and we are just too busy farming to figure it out. And if we do start shipping outside of the U.S. you can darn well bet it will cost you more than five bucks.

* The really cool thing about our prices as compared to our larger competitors is that if you find a lower price here than there you can darn well bet that we are paying as much if not more for the same product and they are just making more money off of you.
