I was about to order a bunch of things on Amazon the other day until it said I had to pay separate shipping to each of the individual merchants I had purchased the items from.  So for an $80 order I was going to have to pay $60 in separate shipping costs.  Just something to be aware of.  I didn't go through with the order.

This part of Amazon seems different though?  If it ships from their warehouse than I imagine it's just 1 shipping cost and all the items can be bundled, which would be sweet, but I don't know.

After days of price shopping and seeing 500 petri dishes ranging from $54 to $299 I finally found some on ebay for $41 woo.

Thanks for sharing that part of Amazon I was unaware of though.

This place is my favorite - they do combined shipping, occasional sales and the people running it are really nice (if they don't have something they can usually add it via their various wholesale accounts and give you combined shipping within a month): http://stores.ebay.com/OnlineScienceMall

Oh, I forgot the good part: when I said combined shipping, I meant they take the shipping of the highest shipping-cost line item you order, and that is what they charge you for it.  Also great about returns (only had to return something once, for an apothecary jar that was the wrong size - they had me take a photo of it next to one that was the right size, said I could keep it + sent a replace + gave me a 50% off coupon for my next order).
