Online stores have made Free Shipping almost a standard when you are shopping for goods on the internet.
We too have tried to price our products to give us the ability to offer free shipping to our customers.
However, shipping rates have started to increase almost monthly. I remember when we first started in 2009 it was $1.69 to ship a first class package to anywhere in the United States. Now that same service costs $4 minimum.
We have decided to quit the practice of including shipping costs in our product prices. Shipping is what it is. Noone gives free shipping. It's always included in the product price.
Getting rid of free shipping will allow us to offer lower prices across the board. You can always offset the shipping costs by buying 10 or more products and getting 20% off your order totals.
Hope you understand that free shipping is the biggest bullshit there is. We can't keep offering free shipping and raising our product prices to keep up with the costs. We are slashing our product prices and slapping on shipping charges based on your orders weight.

Fuck Your Feelings Patch
Ambiguity has its merits. For instance, sometimes you want to say something without actually coming out and saying it. You want to leave people guessing as to your meaning. If that's your style, check out the Fuck Your Feelings patch. It is part of our funny biker patches collection.
A person can take the message in any number of ways. We won't try to tell you what it means because it could mean different things to different people. That's the beauty of ambiguity. You get to say what you want, and mean every word of it, while someone else takes it to mean something else.
We can say one thing about the message here: the feelings of others may or may not matter to you. Depending on how you take it, others' feelings might be the most important thing in your life. On the other hand, you might not give a rat's ass. Either way, that's your right. God bless America!
The Fuck Your Feelings patch measures just 4 x 1.5 inches. Though small, it packs a punch. If you cannot think of a good place to put it, might we suggest the back pocket of a pair of jeans? Anyone paying attention while you walk by is going to look anyway, so you might just as well give them something to look at.
If your jeans don't work, take a look at your biker vest or jacket. The chances are good your denim vest has pockets on both sides. They work. If you are looking at a leather jacket, the left or right breast works, too.
Fuck your feelings says it all. Exactly what it says is up to you. Whether you want to make people laugh or cry, this particular biker patch offers the opportunity for both.
Old Skool Motorcycle Skull Embroidered Iron on Biker Patch
Everything new eventually gets old, right? That being the case, the biker culture of the 40s, 50s, and 60s is now considered old school. It is still the only way to go for a lot of bikers though. If that sounds like you, the Old Skool Motorcycle Skull embroidered iron-on biker patch might just be the patch you've been looking for.
This is a back patch measuring 11 x 9.9 inches. It features the typical biker skeleton donning his leathers and riding a chopper. An orange background could simulate the sun. Who knows? At the bottom of the patch is a banner with '13' on each end and 'Old Skool' in the middle.
There is some debate in the biker community about the meaning of the number 13. We won't get into that right now. As for what it means to be old school, it is all about the postwar culture of days gone by.
An old school biker often has grease under his nails because he works on his own bike. He knows every part inside and out. An old school biker lives for the road. Their destination is not nearly as important as the ride to get there.
It has been said that you will never find old school bikers at coffee shops or ice cream stands. They aren't into social trends and modern thinking. They are big proponents of honor, loyalty, respect, and trust. And yes, old-school bikers are a charitable bunch.
Admittedly, the Old Skool Motorcycle Skull patch doesn't reflect all that. But if you are old school, it doesn't matter. You know what the phrase means. Put this patch on your leather jacket or vest and you'll be easily identified by other old-school bikers. You're part of a club that has withstood the test of time.
Sugar Skull with Beard Large Back Patch
And now for something completely different, we offer you a biker patch that could be unlike anything else you have ever seen. We call it the Sugar Skull with Beard large back patch. If you know what this patch depicts, you are in the minority. Not a lot of people have seen a genuine Sugar Skull, let alone know what it actually is.
Before we get to that part, this 8.3 x 12-inch back patch is easily one of the most colorful patches in our collection. It has got a little bit for everyone. What makes it truly unusual is the beard – that's not something you see every day on skulls. But it works here.
So, what is a sugar skull? It is known as a 'calavera' in Spanish. It is a small, decorative skull usually made of either sugar or clay and used as part of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration. The same Spanish word can be applied to a variety of artistic skull creations.
Some of the more ornate sugar skulls and not only painted, but also decorated with feathers, colored foil, and beads. Those intended for consumption can be decorated with anything from nuts to chocolates and small pieces of fruit.
The calavera is all about color. You can see that in this biker patch. If nothing else, the Sugar Skull with Beard backpack will get your attention with colors from every part of the spectrum. You haveyour red, green, yellow, blue, and more.
So many colors make the patch ideal for blue denim or either black or brown leather. Nothing is off limits here. When you choose this back patch for your vest or jacket, you are getting a high-quality patch that really makes a statement. This one definitely will not go unnoticed.
Jester Skull Large Back Patch
We are all scared of something, right? Some people are afraid of the dark. Others are scared by thunderstorms. Some people are even afraid of clowns. If you're one of them, the Jester Skull large back patch is probably not the best choice for your vest or jacket. For everyone else though, welcome aboard.
The image on this patch is truly indescribable. It starts with the nasty looking skull biker patches are known for. Next, the artist threw in some clown paint along with a black and white striped clown suit. They topped it off with a red and black jesters hat complete with bells shaped like miniature skulls.
What makes this patch so creepy are the eyes. The image is angled slightly downward so that it looks like the eyes are peering up at you. The red clown paint around the eyes makes them stand out even more. Get a few beers in you and this patch could really creep you out.
We have some pictures showing this back patch affixed to a leather vest. It really looks fantastic. The contrast of the black and white against black leather makes the image jump out at you from every angle. In terms of how it contrasts with the leather, this may be one of the best back patches we have. Incidentally, it measures 8.7 x 12 inches.
The patch is narrow enough that you could fit smaller patches on either side. It could support top and bottom rockers, too. However, the Jester Skull large back patch is certainly strong enough to stand on its own.
If you are into all things creepy and you love motorcycles, we are guessing this would be an excellent choice as your back patch. Sew it on with a needle and thread and then stand back and wait for the reactions.
