Thanked: 3228The Amazon puzzle
Recently a well know shaving soap could be bought on Amazon for $10 USD with free shipping. If you looked at the sellers site under "shipping" there is a list of countries they ship to and the cost of shipping to the USA is of course free. Shipping to Canada in the same chart is listed at $2 USD per item.
Going to Amazon.ca the same item from the same seller is listed at $CAD, USD price plus the $2 USD shipping when converted to $CAD, but still shows free shipping for the item to Canada. So how then is the shipping "free" when near as I can tell it is included in the item cost of the item if shipped to Canada?
Makes you also wonder if the "free" shipping to the USA is not already rolled into the total cost anyway. It's a puzzle alright. Regardless it is still a good deal in the end, just a bit puzzling.
