Just tried to order this from Bandcamp and I almost fell from my chair. 22,68 EUR for shipping. That's more than 60% of the item price! I don't want to buy the cargo plane, I just want a f*cking CD...

it's more expensive than my shipping fee for my pre-ordered shin sakura taisen limited edition (big box with an artbook, a game and 6 cd cases, heavier than a "f*cking" cd)

Bandcamp’s shipping is always ridiculous. John told me to tell you to contact him through his website www.haywardpublishing.com

He might be able to work with you directly and set up something less expensive since he would be more in control of the shipping method.

Doesn't the shipping costs depend on what shipping the seller is using, checking my purchases, I've had one 4.50€ shipping, and then few 7/8/15 dollar shipping costs.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

EDIT: John Hayward has replied promptly and they've adjusted the rates.
