I ordered several sale items from Officials Choice in March. Shipping was $14.38 on a $39 order. The shirts arrived in three days by USPS. The bag arrived a week later by FedEx ground.

It may sound like shipping was expensive, but the sale prices were so low, it more than made up. And their actual shipping costs were close to $10 (by my estimate), so I did not have a problem with the small handling fee. I don't quite understand why folks here think businesses should lose money on shipping. I know many places charge about $7 for shipping. But I'd rather spend $9.50 on a shirt that costs $31 at Honigs or $20 on a bag that is $38 at Honigs. Sure, it cost me $6 more for shipping. But I saved $61 on these items for an extra $7 in shipping. How can anyone call that a bad deal?

Officials Choice is now charging $15 for the "microsofter" basketball shirts that everyone here says are so wonderful. Others get $27 for a micromesh shirt. So what if you pay a few bucks more for shipping?
