This banner doesn't make sence, I read this as if I purchase after the 16th of Dec. I will be charged shipping.

I believe this to be more of a reminder and to entice those on the edge to jump in and buy now otherwise you will have to pay for expidited shipping in order to have your purchase before Christmas.

Peter, as I've commented previously, apparently(cf Orwell)some is more free than others.

Hey Jason, it may mean that, and I do agree, but it doesn't say that.

Consider if this was the first time you visited the axiom website.

Seems kind of a shallow ploy to generate xmas business. "Better do it now or else..."

Not saying this is bad, my wife and I run a retail store and will also do similar advertising, Even at Monster.ca we do promotions to convince customers to purchase within the quarter.

Except here, shipping is always free, so why is it now only free to the 16th?

"I guess I better order those M2's before I have to pay shipping!"

I miss the good old days when banners like this could say "Christmas" rather than "Holiday" so it would be obvious that the banner was talking about a specific date.

It's hard to even find cards that say "Merry Christmas" up here these days, they all say "Seasons Greetings" or "Happy Holidays". Bah !!
