I hear you! I placed one order after their shipping options changed, and as well as the higher shipping it cost me half as much again as my original order total in tax and brokerage. Tax is fair enough, but the brokerage was the killer and the next time I won a gift cert I gave it to someone else. I used to love the cheap rate for stamps and dies, but if Kim was having to replace a lot of orders that went missing I can see why she felt she needed to change. I never had any problems, I'm glad to say everything I ordered arrived very promptly.
She doesn't carry the full range, but you can get quite a bit from Frantic Stamper:
