We DON'T make money off of shipping like some other sites allow. The price for shipping on an item that we posted maybe years ago is not what the cost is today. On the Arabian publications those of use who love them know that they not only vary in dimensions and weight so we're unable to add a price to the "cost of additional item) in shipping.
