$40 to ship 1 Spool of Filament?

I am a USA Resident and have been buying Prusament for a while now. As of late it seems that the cost of shipping has Skyrocketed. Especially to the US. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this Global Conflict based? Apologies if I missed something/ an announcement or other updates here but man, $40 shipping for a <$30 Spool of PLA caught me off guard. This is honestly the best filament out there and am sad to see this happen.

Try VoxelPLA.com . They make excellent filament. A USA business in Garden Grove CA. It's $16.99 for both their PLA+ and PetG+. I get 20-30 spools at a time and that gets me about $1 a spool discount. It's FAST and prints very well. I've used it almost exclusively for over 1-1/2 years, except for a few specialty products I get from Amazon (next day shipping). For your $70 you can get 4 rolls with free shipping.

RE:

Prusa’s USA authorized dealer is: Printed Solid  in NJ https://www.printedsolid.com sells Prusament for a reasonable price..plus free shipping over $50.  

I checked Voxel out some time ago, it’s not made in the USA.  I opted to not order it.  “Printed Solid” has its own (Jessie) PLA & PTEG brands made in USA with trusted ingredients.  Its PLA & PETG both sell for $19.99 for 1kg.  I’ve only used Jessie filament, so I have no reference, but it’s rated very high…some say it’s as good as Prusament.

I hope this helps.
