As usual, I have stuff to say about Lulu pricing, and shipping and handling in particular!

Shiping and handling is more than 30% – that hurts. I heard that they’re working on International Shipping Solutions. Let’s hope they get their act together, soon. I’m looking at β€œThis should greatly reduce the shipping costs anywhere in Europe.” And I wonder: Are they talking about Europe the continent, or Europe the Union that Switzerland is not part of?

International Shipping Solutions

I’m a bit surprised that the adventure and Knockspell ​#2 both cost more than Fight On! ​#5. *grumble*

Ok, now I have to make sure to get something in for ​#6. Let me see… Due date is *June 27*!

I heard a rumor that international customers might get cheaper (flat rate) shipping for *three items or less*.

Must remember that for next time.
