Unfortunately, I do not have control over the shipping cost, since the gas prices has gone up so has the shipping costs. I put in the size package and weight then eBay and the shippers algorithms determines the cost basically from zip code to zip code. Also, if a package weighs 2.2 Lbs. we have to ship as 3 lbs. I use to do free shipping on items in hopes it was easier for you to determine which way to go. I just can't afford it anymore. I do however pay for extra insurance on items over $100. Thank you for your understanding.
