SMALL ORDER FEES
All of our orders are carefully reviewed, packaged if stock, and verified at shipment. Each of these steps incur costs and labor, which cause smaller orders to generally be a net loss once we've fulfilled them. This fee helps cover those costs, in part, so that we can continue to offer great service and products. Orders with subtotals below $25 will have this $10 small order fee applied and will appear in the cart before checkout.
