Why did CSI discontinue the $12.00 flat rate shipping option for Ready-to-Drink?
 
We understand it appears that shipping rates have jumped up, however unfortunately they’ve always been this high.  The previous $12 flat rate system charged some customers more than actual shipping cost, while on the majority of orders CSI swallowed the additional cost over the $12.00 charge.  The new pricing structure, including quantity discounts and our bundle shipping, helps save nearly all of our customers money on their orders.  Additionally, this system gives expedited shipping options not previously offered. 
 
Please note that the shipping pricing that you see on the system is the exact pricing we are charged by FedEx or USPS (we do not surcharge for shipping or handling).

 

Please see the following graph on how this applies to a recent order (to the East Coast) vs. this same order on our old system:
