The Concorde Collection charges a postage and handling fee for each item of jewelry, regardless of how many items they can cram into one envelope. Case in point - they managed to cram three items into one small padded PO mailer which then cost them @ $2.55 in postage. Yet they charged me $$17.85 in postage and handling. I haven't seen a company do this in years, but I guess the Concorde Company figures they'd better get as much money as possible as quickly as possible. This is a real rip-off, in my opinion.
