Yes, I'd like to pay nearly $200 for shipping of a $30 thing. Or free shipping that will arrive on the same day.

I think that this is just a shipping cost function that Shopify provides to shops. I don't think that the seller added these options. Its just showing different options that they have access to in their system. No human has looked at these options and decided that they make sense. The store probably doesn't even know.
I hate how shopify has taken over internet commerce. I refuse to buy from anywhere that uses it, but it is becoming increasingly difficult.
You're gonna flip when you hear about it's cousin Amazon
That one is much easier to ignore, at least where I live.
Unfortunately there's a lot of small businesses out there that rely on Shopify, it stinks but I have been forced to use them a few times.
Yeah, same. Especially for more niche things. But I alwaysvlook for alternatives still.
….. oh fucking kay…….
Do you…do you shop only with the Amish or?????
Like don’t tell me you shop at a major corp or own a car or that you have a phone while boycotting small business lol what the hell.
Shopify is shit but like, holy fuck literally angels next to bezos.
I don't buy from big corps. The majority of my purchases are done in person in local shops. I have a Fairphone which while not perfect, is much better than the average phone, with a degoogked version of android. While I do have an electric car, I bought it used and still use public transport when I can. I am vegan.
Forgive me for trying to avoid a shit company that is less shit than others.
I understand that I am privileged to be able to make the choices I have. Not everybody is able to do so. But fucking hell, why put people down for trying to make better choices where they can.
