    I look at the bottomline price all the time, dont even care about ship price.
    Who cares if Amaton or Wallyworld offers free ship, I care about the final price.

    I hate to break it to you, but there's no such thing as free shipping. When I sell on eBay I just mark the item up assuming the furthest zip code, throw in a dollar or two for packing materials like tape figure a price and offer free shipping.

    Which is why I bought my ARB bumper from eBay

    eBay = no tax

    Amazon = tax

    OK, thanks for the education. I was trying to find someone to give me the specs on the piece that goes into the carrier, then I was going to weld some legs on the cross piece so I don't tear up my bearing seal.
    Butthurt? nope..

    I agree, I don't order anything online if it does not have free shipping.

    agree but the series Jack ryan on Amazon is worth it. if offered a one month free trial take it just to watch jack ryan then cancel before the month is up.

    I used to fly in and out of the Memphis airport for the company I used to work for, FedEx has a fleet of jets sitting there that kind of puts shipping costs into perspective. When your playing at that level to make sure it gets wherever in a couple days, you really can't beat 10-15 dollars. That being said 50-120 dollars is average to ship the bed bars I make.

    My ECGS bushing was $25.61 to ship. No tool, just bushing, regular shipping.
    Cause Hawaii.
    And ya, like Kahanabob said, a lot of things won't even ship here. Amazon Prime is a bitch. Half the things I try to order won't ship. Even things like windshield wipers won't ship on Prime.

    so get this..i like the frozen tilapia that costco sells on the mainland. for some reason they do not sell it in any costco in the state of hawaii. twice over the last few years i have bought like 10 bags on the mainland, packed it in my suitcase with dry ice and brought it back.
    sorry to go way off topic here, i am done!

    Cause people who were born and raised in Hawaii know Tilapia is a rubbish fish. lol. No offense of course but growing up here there was plenty of Tilapia and it was always thrown back cause it's a bottom feeder of sorts, it eats anything. I think that's just how Hawaii people are so the market was never strong here for it.
    I work for the airlines so trust me, when I need something and it won't ship to Hawaii, I send it to a friend's house then fly up and bring it back free. It's just a waste of my day off to do it so I try to avoid it. hahah
