I noticed that too. I have been a big fan of this sub, but the price change is ridiculous.I received my GlobeIn and I am not happy with this new development that they are doing. They are jacking up the "value" of the items by saying it includes "free shipping". Err, no. If the retail is 9.99, stating it is worth 12.00 with free shipping is not free.
They totally did a very unethical thing here with the prices. The candles sell for 5.00, they valued them at 8.00 - huh? Even the retailer has it at 5.00
I have two more months with them, and if this trend continues, I will not be subscribing with them after my sub is up.
I also dislike that the basket is always part of the worth of the box. If the basket is their "bag", then it should be an extra, as the whole part of a subscription is to try new and unique items.
Sorry for the rant, but when I saw the price jack on their informational card, I got pissed off.
yes, I let them know about the pricing and they seemed to be very responsive in the emails. We shall see if they continue that in the upcoming box.This sub is pricier than I like.
I also noticed they jacked up the retail value to include the cost of shipping from whatever retailer they got it from. Um, no. That's not how life works.
Valuewise? Meh.
Fun? Sure. Especially if you're into the whole fair trade thing.
