For those who used to/still buying CD's and other cheap stuff from them: Free shipping is no more, unless you speding 100$.
Worse. Recently, I've ordered a spindle of 50 Kingston CD-Rs + 10 3" CD-r's, thinking that in that case 9$ s/h is OK. But, here is what happened - spindle was backordered at the moment thus they sent me e-mail, notifying, that "the item you've ordered was discontinued or backordered by manufacturer (pick one)... you can cancell the order". Feared that it is discontinued, I called and cancelled the order. Next thing I know, they're sending me an e-mail saying, that the 3' CD-Rs were alredy shipped, thus they can't cancel them. Obviously I've got the full s/h charge applied, putting those 3' cuties at 2$ a piece!!!
Even worse - CUSTOMER SUPPORT WAS TERRIBLE. They didn't do a thing to fix the mess to say least. Not even admit any wrongdoing or give me a s/h break on the similar to the backordered (as I found out later) item.
Moral? Think twice before odering from OUTPOST.
