Get it while you can. I seriously doubt Arrow will continue to lose huge money on free overnight & overseas shipping like this. I mean, is it good business sense to lose $30+ per package to people ordering $2 dollar items? Even the packaging materials cost double what people are ordering.
That might be something on your side, it looks fine here:
edit:
…and yes - I agree. They may eventually introduce/go back to 50 $US minimum order to qualify for free shipping. For every package I have received they may have lost 15-25 $US; even with different corporate shipping rates because my order value was so low.
The thing is that it costs them about 5-8$US to ship about everywhere in the world, since they are an absolute massive company, and they can get excellent discounts on shipping.
And besides, there’s a good reason they are doing this: if a hobbyist buys components there, they may have a BOM there when they make a full product/become part of a company design team.
That’s where the real money comes from, and how they make back their money multiple times over these relatively small orders.

Ohhhhh no I’m going to bed dammit they better be there in 6 hours

Haha…directly stepped into your trap. But Rick is a cool guy. :sunglasses:
I was just more hoping for another source of white flats at a decent rate 
Really, Rick Astley? That’s funny.
MTG2's for $1.71 +tariff +sales tax if 10 or more are purchased. Not highest bin, but for that price they are good for prototyping/experimenting.

Opps, just realized the above is 36v model
Definitely…
Wellp, for that 12s1p Maglite conversion…
Here’s proof Arrow doesn’t pay for shipping. I find it literally impossible for someone to do this unless they just have a fixed contract with FedEx
$2.19 order of 2 optics
I received as large package across the world with 1 Luxeon V2 worth IIRC $0.23.
Am I the only customer who receives tiny arrow.com packages for small parts? Mine are 1/2 inch high and maybe 5 inches squared.
That box is huge!
I’ve had Arrow ship a single T-1 3/4 emitter from Europe to the U.S. via FedEx, in a similar sized box.
It was packaged in a smaller box cushioned by anti-static foam.
The other parts in the order came in anti-static bags, from the U.S.
I don’t know how they can offer free overnight within the U.S., never mind across borders, but that’s how they do business, so I won’t complain.
If we keep this up, BLF will bankrupt Arrow, besides driving them bananas... So, my next order is com'n! 
brb wrecking the economyyyyy
Why do you hate me, why do you do this to me… 
Ordered 50 leds for ~10$
