Amazon gives non-Prime members free shipping at $35 or more of eligible items. Instead of simply letting users get the product with free shipping, they’ve added a discount that prices it exactly one cent below the $35 limit, while only subsidizing the price with $3.38, which is about half of what they’ll then charge you for shipping.

    It’s $5 more expensive, and then shipping.

    But the real price of the amazon one is either 34.99 plus shipping or 38.37 without shipping
