Lois DeJoy is a businessman who would like to see the US Postal Service privatized and has been public about that. Not exactly an unbiased source. I think that Wyze shipping through the Post Office is Patriotic, supporting universal Postal service. Of course I spent 11 years in the military also. It’s not fashionable these days to be Patriotic, especially when Your convenience is at risk.

Outstanding Ski ! I have a great appreciation for my fellow Patriots and even more for those brothers bound by their Oath and Honor. 11 years USMC, SSGT 0358. Great to meet you

Likewise. Was in the guard before going full time, ORNG 11B. Then had the privilege of attending boot camp for a second time for the US Navy. (Dad was USN in WWII) Got in trouble there for mostly laughing at inappropriate times, MM1. Nice to meet you also.
IMO, any complaints about this issue need to be leveled not at Wyze, [Mod Edit]

The USPS is a public service. The government has done it’s best to sink the USPS under [Mod Edit] Instead we need massive support for a wonderful service. It will still be much cheaper than the private carriers.

So… about the shipping being included in the product cost. Will that be adjusted then on pre-orders that are fulfilled and shipped after this new structure goes into effect?

What will be the new price for a Wyze pan cam as of May 18th. Thanks
According to the information, only the V3 and doorbell are increasing right now.

Thanks for your transparency here Wyze, and in these times, it makes perfect sense to increase pricing.
With that, I would like to ask for the Canucks … When the Canadian Ordering is live from your site, and the Cam V3 is available, are we to assume that shipping will be included in the pricing as well?

Are these prices going to come down some of them seem fine but others like the security system pricing and the bulbs have gone up a ton
Is shipping cost still included? There is a +shipping next to the price listed.
Looks like shipping is no longer bundled. Back to being added at checkout.
I’m sure they’re alternating to test which performs better: launching with shipping included or launching with shipping separate. I expect to see differences on a few launches so they can get some data about how things like how often someone adds an item to their account then cancels after they see the shipping costs vs knowing the total upfront, and if lower shipping on bulk orders makes a difference in purchase closing rates, or if including shipping in the listed cost lowers the number of people who even consider ordering (because it looks higher or is ignored in some search algorithms when sorted by price, or deals websites because others without shipping included APPEAR to be lower in their base cost) etc. After a few tests each way they should have enough data to see which method is most effective for their bottom line overall. Expect to see this alternate a few times and then eventually stay consistent longterm once they’ve seen which works best with the majority of people.
Of course, I don’t actually work for Wyze, and have no inside knowledge as to what they are doing, I am just suspecting this from my own experience with data analysis, business ownership, and marketing.

Interesting stepping stone methodology.
-
We’re raising the price, but will include shipping.
-
A few months later, keep the raised price, but drop the included shipping. Now shipping costs extra on top of the raised price
.
They increased the cost of the product over 150% under this guise.

Are you sure that’s what is happening? I think the raised prices and included shipping were two different things.
What a truly weird world we live in. Common sense seems to have taken a vacation.
As an adult, I’m the sole decision maker. If I feel a product is over priced……I don’t commit to the purchase. (Learned all that in 4th grade)
What’s your point?
