Just keep checking here, when one of them does someone here will let everyone know. I’ve seen free shipping and or free hazmat alerts posted here several times this year.
Graf&Sons is currently offering free shipping on orders of 99 dollars.
I believe their hazmat fee is $ 23.00?

Hazmat labeling during transportation is required by law. The charge for Hazmat is determined by the individual shipping company. The shipper can charge whatever fee they want or none at all. As long as it's labeled Hazmat, it's legal. That's why the cost varies from one vendor to another. Back Creek doesn't charge hazmat and refuses to pay the shipper for Hazmat.
I had no idea about that. A very good to know industry secret hack. Thanks for sharing!
If any business offers "Free Hazmat" shipping, you know ahead of time, they've got their prices jacked up enough to cover ANYTHING that is free.
No such thing as a free lunch, unless you're eating at Grandma's house.
And no business I know of is a Non Prophit. They're in it to make $$$ so buy accordingly.

You really should make the acquaintance of a N-SSA member. We purchase powder from Back Creek while we're at Nationals and as a result, no shipping or hazmat. And no, we don't buy just a pound or two at the time. It's usually by the case.
PM me, I'm in NC
None of that fee goes to the government?
For me Hazmat is cheaper than the gas needed to drive to the nearest supplier
What is nssa
Nssa like skeet shooting? You guys using muzzleloading shotguns for that?
N-SSA, not NSSA.
N-SSA- NORTH SOUTH SKIRMISH ASSOCIATION
Probably the largest organization dedicated to the live fire of Civil War arms in the world. And yes, we burn quite a bit of powder.

None directly but excise tax is on all transportation.

I find them all the time but you have to be pro active and catch them on time. Natchez runs free hazmat promos all the time usually for a couple of days.
Sometimes even factoring in hazmat and shipping fees an order can be cheaper than buying the same items at a local shop. For example, not long ago I bought 5 pounds of Schuetzen with free shipping from Graf at $18.99 a container while the local shop in my area charges $39 for just one. That’s $100 savings right there.
