Regarding cyber monday sale

[Miketg]

Looking back now, I don't fully understand why there was a $39.95 shipping fee for shipments to Canada.

"Shipping Charges
We charge only $4.95 (and $9.95 for international orders) no matter how many bottles you purchase!"

What made for the extra 30=P
Does this ensure no duties charge or something? I'm just kinda confused=P sorry

the normal charge during the year is $9.95 when the prices are full retail. at the prices (and tiny margins) we had for this sale we would lose money on every order we sent internationally if we charged that price. it costs us about 35-40 dollars to ship a 10 pound package to canada (to some other places like europe and asia, we would have paid over 50 dollars for a package of that size)
