$26.50 USD to ship this to Canada? What is it, the size of a microwave?

wolfinThe 12 inch size is starting to approach the size of a small microwave, so yes :)
It seems to be a limitation of Massdrop's system that they can't have different shipping costs depending on which options are selected in the drop, so the shipping price has to allow for the heaviest possible option.
Frankly, if they're not going to update the system, they should at least split drops like this into 2 or more separate drops, with the smaller and lighter items in one drop, and the larger and heavier in another so that shipping costs are more appropriate to the items being purchased.
It's not all bad though, I think in some drops the shipping price is sort of averaged across all the items, so if you're buying the largest, heaviest option you effectively get a discount on the shipping cost.
