I'm sure its factored into the price of the books, but the books themselves are cheeping than I can find anywhere else either. I guess I must just be giving into the man and screwing over someone, but I can't figure out who.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05494391031541363595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1364472617154190092.post-10710258784109353112010-08-21T17:07:19.715+12:002010-08-21T17:07:19.715+12:00Hello,

I have been an employee of Amazon in the past and work there now as a contractor. <br /><br />You state "Then Amazon added postage and handling" but that is not correct. Those are actually sold by RPGShop'com on the Amazon website - look next to the price. RPGShop is doing the gouging, not amazon. Amazon has lots of merchandise by 3rd party merchants on their site, and the merchants set shipping costs.James McCannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071008782847309923noreply@blogger.com
