My wife used to work for a company that shipped a lot of stuff, and they had accounts with all the major shipping companies. They shipped enough stuff that they got 70%-80% discount on all shipping. I know that a company as large as Stillen gets at least that good of a discount, so shipping a small box with a 1lb pulley cost them maybe 20¢ lol.

On a side note, that's how a lot of those infornercials selling free samples of stuff make their money. You get a 60 day supply of pills just pay 12$ S&H, when it costs them less than a dollar for the product and another dollar for the shipping. $10 profit for nothing, then they charge your card repeatedly unless you cancel.
