    image.jpg Got to love when you order something, you get charged 14.00 for shipping and it arrives in a 6.00 dollar flat rate shipping box.

    Come on guys.

    Stay classy America

    I'm sorry, I checked USPS and it's about $13.50 for a medium box.

    I stand corrected, see post a few below.

    Have to assume that you also paid for the handling charge, to pay for the labor of pulling the part off the shelf, packaging and labeling, and possibly the trip to the post office. All overhead supposedly.

    Look at the picture. Its the "small" one. Now....I can understand how you like to assume its larger than it actually is....but its not.

    Had a light vendor on here do the same by a few extra dollars. Must've charged me for his gas money to and from the post office

    Had to zoom in a little to read the measurements on it. About $6.80 for it so yeah, 100% mark up on shipping is a bit excessive.

    Site should be renamed to DramaWorld.

    I think its the point. Not the actual amount that's the issue.
