Newegg has been raising their shipping fees for the past 3 years or so, and now it's getting annoying. I don't like paying 5x$5=$25 shipping for 5 items, only to receive them in one box. Has anyone tried placing their order part by part, to see if the items are still shipped in the same box?

I'm just tired of bending over for shipping fees, and I want to stick it to the egg.

The only time I don't see shipping combined is when they ship from multiple locations or need to be shipped by themself(big)

The last order I placed had about 10 or so different items. I got slapped with $30 or so in shipping fees, and it all came in a single box. I don't see how they ship from multiple locations when I receive it all in the same shipment. It's still timely enough (4 days from order to receipt) that I don't think it's possible for them to ship parts of my order from warehouse to warehouse in order to combine the final shipment.
