Right now I have a small number of items in my cart (<$10 worth). And these are my options to ship to US west coast.
...

I wonder how do I get the 99 cent option?

Move to the Midwest?

I ordered two days ago and got it today. UPS Express for $6 which was the cheapest offered to me for about $100 worth of random stuff, mainly pots and switches. No enclosures tho

I've found DHL to be the most reliable in central Texas. UPS and FedEx always seem to lose or misplaced an item I order or it shows up late at night where DHL shows up around lunch time all the time. Plus, Tayda sets their shipping rate to 99 cents for them quite often -- but I generally wait until I get about $200 in parts.

Just spent 360$ on an order, 10$ shipping through FedEx, I’m in CA.
I used to use DHl and never had an issue, FedEx Express seems to be working well so far

This has come up before and I always wonder - is it possible that they have a warehouse in the US that keeps some items in stock? And maybe depending on what you order and which warehouse your items are in, it will change the price accordingly. Just a thought. I’m east coast US and I’ve gotten shipments from crazy fast, like 3 days after I ordered.

You can track the shipping. In my experience it's always sent from Thailand and always takes 2-3 days. Usually Thailand to Japan to LA to me on the West Coast. Once it went the other way and through Germany. Similar path for Fedex and DHL. It's remarkably fast and cheap, even if you don't get the $.99 rate
