I had finally decided to get one of these 2011 Joplin Chiefs Tshirts, but the web site is saying that the least expensive shipping option (UPS Ground) is $15 dollars and change. Does it have something to do with "All net proceeds benefit tornado victims"? That really fucking sucks. Are these shirts in Indonesia?

Yeeaahhh...I'd have to know how much of that $37 is actually going to disaster relief. If you're doing it to help, you'd probably be better off just making a $25 donation to one of the charities listed in the Joplin thread.

That means it costs about 3 dollars to ship, they make about $12, and they give the actual price of the shirt to relief. They make their money off the shipping.

Bingo, good advise.

Because god forbid they don't make a profit off of them...
