BTC and LTC price changes drastically, hence the change in price.
I have denominated the shipping in terms of BTC and LTC. I do not see a problem with that.
I've asked the same question twice and you have avoided it twice. I didn't ask about the shipping cost's denomination. I posted the shipping cost from USPS.
Why are you charging 4X the shipping cost (now), and originally 6X? It doesn't cost anywhere near what you are charging. I'm just asking for some honesty here as a customer.
Wouldn't it make more sense to just charge what it is? That protects BOTH the buyer and seller.
To quote myself:
When this thread started on June 26th BTC was just over $100. That would mean a shipping price of (.62X$103) = $67. USPS's top shipping charge that I saw was around $50.
The current price of BTC is not around $70, which would put the shipping rate at (.62X$70) = $43
I calculated out that the cost roughly to ship the two coins and the case within the U.S. would be $25 with registered mail. So I put a buffer on that based on the BTC/LTC fiat price.
Do the same with international shipping via priority mail and registered mail and you get a price closer to $40 if not more. Also put a buffer there.
Does this answer your question?
Aside from that there really isnt anything left to explain on the shipping costs other than, it is the price I am charging. You don't have to buy my coins as I've stated many time previous to this.
This is the free-market. If people decide I am charging too much I will get the message and may make changes. Technically I don't have to sell these coins if I dont want to.
I choose to because the point of the coins is to get people who dont understand cryptocurrency in the virtual form to understand it in a physical form.
