I have a couple questions:
1. I wanted to order the Advanced Bestiary along with some other things but when I added it to the 8 or so things in my cart, the shipping cost went through the roof! So I figured I'd wait. (My order is still "pending")
So then I see Hell in Freeport and think I might want it and the AB.
I put the AB in my cart and shipping for it is around $7, making $12 total; thats cool. But when I added Hell in Freeport my shipping jumped to $25!!! WHAT?!!
Why is it so much cheaper to order them each separately?!
It's only like $17 total if I order them separately and $32.50 together. I am a little confused.

When your order contains mainly books, you get to take advantage of the USPS Bound Printed Matter service rate, which is relatively inexpensive. But it has a maximum weight, and when you go over that weight, your package can only be shipped by a more expensive (although usually faster) service. (This can also happen if you add something heavy that isn't a book, like a large board game.)
So yes, it is possible to save money by submitting them as two separate orders.
