Has the shipping cost of albums always been this high? (1 Viewer)

I was thinking of getting some albums, Day6's newest and maybe sth else too, but Kpopmart's shipping prices have a changed a lot since the last time I ordered. I used to be able to get multiple albums with 20 dollars shipping. Now the shipping cost alone is almost 40 dollars. Even more, YesAsia has risen their free shipping price limit, now you have to spent 79 dollars to get it, before it was 49 dollars.

I guess the times of buying physical albums is truly over ... or maybe this is just cause of covid and the prices go down eventually

That's insane, I usually order from Amazon or a kpop store from the US so the prices aren't that high

Kt4u jacked up their 3 album shipping deal from $20 to nearly $40

Sadly Europe doesn't have as many kpop stores and the ones here high prices even if the shipping is less expensive. I used to think that Kpopmart is cheap and I mean 12 dollars for kpop album is incredibly cheap but when the shipping is over three time more expensive than the product there is no point to buy

i think dhl was offering that and stopped.

i just ordered 9 albums with posters it was 74 dollars shipping.

I just call it ~22 dollars an album which is less than most of the albums on amazon us.
