Hi Elisia, thank you for your feedback.
We obviously do ship from Colorado, but some orders get shipped out from California as well, and we plan on having a fulfillment center somewhere on the East coast to plan for the future of shipping and delivery. This is not uncommon for companies to have different fulfillment centers.
The reason for the shipping costs, which is a flat fee for everyone with an order under $74, is because we ship with UPS now instead of USPS. The costs are much higher than it was with USPS.
We used to ship with USPS, but about 3 months ago, many orders took weeks for our customers to get, and most of them, USPS has lost. We had to reship many orders to customers, which we had no problem doing. However, it became frustrating to see many unhappy customers, and customer satisfaction is crucial to us. So we decided to completely move away despite the higher shipping costs for us. This also forced us to charge a flat fee.
We were able to look up your order, and you chose the UPS 4-5 Business Day Shipping option, which the 5th day is today, but your order will be delivered to you tomorrow if you look up the tracking number.
We truly apologize for being one day late. Last week, we had an increase in orders that we never anticipated, but we're in the process of expanding, so this doesn't occur. We're trying our best to get these orders out, but we're humans at the end of the day.
We're sad to hear that you won't come back to us, but we hope you give our products a try because we are beyond confident that our product quality exceeds the vast majority of other brands, if not the best in the world.
Here are two great blog posts explaining the difference between CBD quality and another on the importance of the Entourage Effect.
