I almost exclusively buy PDFs because shipping to Australia is usually pretty painful. But I was wanting a hardcover of Stars Without Number... and was contemplating buying it at the same time as Worlds Without Number (whenever that is ready) to save on shipping costs. So as a test run, I put a copy of SWN in my cart and checked the shipping costs -- $13.63. Put TWO copies of SWN, just as a hypothetical to see how much a 'bundled' purchase might save. Checked the shipping costs -- $29.98.
Huh??
Who charges more per unit to ship two copies of the same item? Are Australians the only ones getting screwed over, or is this just standard practice for DTRPG? I understand they don't actually do the printing/fulfillment of POD themselves. But it seems... odd.
