Just curious as to why it is so expensive to store one vial of purchased sperm. Thank you.

Just to clarify, our storage fees are per account, so it is the same cost to store 4 vials as one. For the record, if your physician offers extended storage, it is almost always significantly more expensive than our rates.
Once assigned for storage, your vial is physically removed from our available inventory and stored in a little frozen safety deposit box. The private storage process takes up space and time as every time a vial is moved it is carefully tracked and logged at multiple check points.
If you are only ordering 1 vial at a time (which I would never recommned due to the speed at which donors often sell out), you have 30 days from the time of purchase to ship without incurring any storage fees. If you purchase 5 or more vials through our Family Today program, you get 1 year of free storage. Family Tomorrow (10 or more vials) comes with 3 years of free storage.
Good luck,
Scott
