@CD_Newton oh yeah, Shopify is extremely bad at international postage calculations for me (I mean, probably I'm just bad at navigating their settings). International postage doesn't completely zero out the sale, it's just a bigger chunk than domestic shipping.

@sundogplanets I'm so sorry this is happening, lots of love and solidarity to you and your family
