    What second option?
    At the Google checkout, there are only three shipping types. All of which cost extra.

    Total with standard shipping for me, is $7.74, not. 95 cents...
    Anybody care to help?

    Yep, I got mine out the door for $0.95, it prolly took 'em a few days to figure out, "Holy crap, we're actually almost paying these guys to buy these things..." kinda thing and change it.
