Why doesn't RMATV have a "free" shipping option on certain small items?

Trying to buy a few stickers with the $4 RMCASH i have and it wants triple what the sticker is worth for shipping? $7 shipping on a $2 sticker....YEAH RIGHT LOL. They need a free shipping option for small items such as stickers or even tools like a wrench or t handle. Was going to buy a tusk t handle as well but seeing as it would be more for the shipping than what the tool is worth, i could get it at lowes or an auto parts store today....

So pay the standard shipping rate of $7 for the stickers you want, go pay double the price for them at your local shop or final option is wait until you need other parts to make the shipping charges worth it or $75 for free shipping. Don't see any other options for you man.

There's not enough margin in the stickers or t-handle to warrant free shipping. If they gave you free shipping on those items, they would lose money from paying for the shipping. They're a business, they aren't in it to lose money.

Sounds like it's cheaper at your local dealer. I'd go there. You're complaining about life. That's just how it works.

100% this should be pretty apparent to most people.

How old is the person posting the question?
Maybe Vital could add Age on a persons profile,
It would really put some questions into perspective if its being asked by a 15yr old or By a 30 yr old, just sayin.

They are one of the best retailers going, with cash back, free shipping on orders over 75, fast shipping, tons of inventory, and you're crying over getting the sticker for free but having to pay for shipping lol. Sorry pal, nobody is taking your side on this.

But you get free stickers with every order on Rocky Mountain, how many stickers could you possibly need.

I always add oil, filters, chain lube, or whatever I will always need in the future to get my stuff over the $75. You are eventually going to need to change your oil. Might as well have some stored up.
