Re: Shipping cost so expensive (for quality food)

I understand that it's high quality stuff and it is a pretty long trip, but all the same, it's a bit high for just the shipping....... How much does the shipping run from Oxbow?
I am in PA as well and recently (December) ordered hay from KM's for the first time. I ordered 25 pounds of hay for $13.00 plus shipping ($25.32), so it cost me a total of $38.32 for 25 pounds of wonderful hay. Per pound, that equates to ~$1.50. There's a feed store close to where I live which sells Oxbow hay at $10 for ~2 pounds, which equates to ~$5.00/pound! Honestly, you can't beat it. And like I said, I bought my hay about a month and a half ago and it doesn't even seem like I have dented the bale. Did I mention my boys go crazy for it? They sleep it in, tunnel through it, popcorn all over the place when you stick a piece of hay through the cage grids even though they have a big pile already! It's worth it for so many reasons.
