Hey guys, just wondering if someone in the know could help me out here. I haven't ever purchased anything online before. When it says "$0.99 Shipping!" next to a mini they have for sale at CoolStuffInc.com. Does that mean per mini? Or $0.99 Shipping per order? Or is it $0.99 per order of that one type of mini? As in buy 3 different mini's pay 3 dollar's shipping?  I'm just wondering if I buy a bunch of say, Old Republic Recruit - 02 at $.49 apiece. Am I gonna pay $1.48 per mini? Cause that ain't happening.  Help Me Bloomilkers.................(Sigh)  ..............your my only hope. *Insert Blue Static here*

I have not bought from CoolStuff, but when I am buying multiple minis I look for "combined shipping" descriptions. Usually bigger stores will do this as 3 minis can just as easily fit into a box as a single. But you MUST read carefully. It might truly be 0.99 per mini.

I buy from CSI all the time and it is always 99 cent shipping no matter how many individual minis you buy (unless they changed it since a week or two ago). It's a great deal on shipping. It's not insured and at your own risk, but I've never had a problem. Sometimes if I'm doing a bigger order I split it and do it over a couple of days so if there is a problem the entire thing won't get lost.

i've ordered a few times from coolstuffinc, the 99 cents shipping is basically the entire thing. like, if you order 10 figures, the shipping is still 99 cents.
if you're still not sure, when you're checking out, they tell you too. (your overall cost for the minis, followed by the total shipping and then total price)

I've ordered from Coolstuff over 20 times. Shipping is usually very reasonable. The only time I've had issues is if I ordered any paints or brushes then the shipping skyrockets because they are in the same category as the metal miniature models. I've brought this to their attention and they've said they will look into it. They were good about refunding me the difference from what they charged me versus what the postage sticker said on the box.
