If the cost of doing business has gone up, why not raise the price? I dont understand why companies use surcharges as an escuse to not raise prices. If it costs more to ship stuff around, just raise the price. If it used to cost $35 to ship stuff to a customer and it now costs $40, then charge the darn $40. Passing these costs onto the customer is fine, just dont insult me when you do it. Best example that effects everyone is the $.05 extra per gallon the gas station charges when you pay for your gas with a credit card. I know that Visa and MC charge the business for processing the transaction a small percentage, but dont pass that cost on to the consumer as a surcharge. Just raise the darn price of gas.
SO, SWF.com, why do you lable it as a surcharge and not just raise the price of shipping? Is it because almost all the other online fish stores also charge $35 and the additional $3 surcharge and you want to appear to have the same prices?
