Have you been talking to my UPS driver? He reminds people of that all the time.

Shipping is and always will be costly and many shippers dont give a damn what it cost so they send their wares the easy way for them and to hell with what it cost. Then there are the sellers that tell you they have it in stock and when you get it and open the box and read the invoice you see a couple of back orders. This only means additional postage at your expense. Go figure its a world without feeling out there for your pocket book.

Every April you can look at your 1040 and think part of that money was used to ship the parts you purchased. If you live in a state that charges sales tax, but you bought the part out of state, many times you escape the sales tax.So maybe you think the shipping is too much, but you didn't pay the tax. It all pencil's out in the end, so just move on. If you don't like a vendor take your business to another one.

Tom,

Postal Service subsidies were phased out in 1983. They don't get any tax dollars.
