Would quite like to join the drop for this one, but got shocked by the shipping and handling fee of 21.25 USD, compared to when I joined another drop earlier for x2 of the brass AAA pocket flashlight and only 4.50 USD handling on that one... What gives?

SpfereI thought that might just be the case but I didn't want to click to find out as I didn't want to commit to anything. But, I know there is a 2-step confirmation process. I just did not want to risk buying it. Thank you.

warchyld67All massdrop shipments is first shipped too massdrop to then be redistributed from them unless they completely changed their practice recently, and package price is usually scaling based on weight and size yes, but the package size of one small flashlight vs 2 tiny flashlights should be marginable (must be note changing that drop from 1 to 2 lowered the handling fee).

warchyld67The knife itself is quite nice, but the wait time was horrendous, but the blade itself is definitely quite lovely to have, tho I admit I have not put it to any kind of testing as I bought it for the appearance.

Spfereyes but the aaa flashlights are a massdrop item they ship it directly from themselves. there are certain items mass drop has in their own stock. i bought the copper and the titanium aaas last year NO shipping charge at all and got them pretty quickly. . i but i still dont get the discrepancy of the shipping from manufacturer to manufacturer for international items. seems its pretty large.

warchyld67Sure that happens from some items, but I would not say it is by any way standard procedure that they got anything in stock as that is not their business model, all prior massdrop specific items have been a collab between them and a producer. And had a pretty hefty long waiting time for them.
