Shipping is my largest cost other than inventory with shipping and shipping related costs running over 12% of gross sales. It is conceivable that I could raise my prices by 12/13% and offer free shipping to the USA (the last round of rate increases about did in my international sales anyway),
The question is would you pay 12/13% more to get free shipping.
AS I EXPECTED THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF VOTERS (ABOUT 88%) WOULD RATHER PAY A SEPARATE SHIPPING CHARGE. IT'S GOOD THAT MOST OF YOU REALIZE THAT "FREE" SHIPPING ISN'T FREE. THE PIPER MUST BE PAID.
