$75 to send a Kit Kat?

[bb123]

Is $75 a standard shipping fee to send something like a Kit Kat, from US to US, with an estimated week-or-less delivery time?

Thanks very much. First-time everything for me...

@bb123 No, not at all.  I mean each vendor has the right to charge whatever they want (and i’m sure people will pay it lol) but that’s beyond insane.  The most ive ever paid was 40 for an overnight once.

@bb123 That's only remotely reasonable if it's courier service, and then you'd be talking about delivery ASAP within about a 75mi radius.  I've needed to send business docs and high-value chemical prototype samples by courier before, and sending an envelope from New Haven to Greenwich would be in that ball park.  But the package would get there in like 2 hours, the courier could be calling me "sir", and if anything went amiss there would be hell to pay.  So @DoomKitty is probably right about this...
