Power,
I paid $12.56 total for shipping and handling on the Bushnell 1000. BTW, $269 is the price for a brand new in the box Yardage Pro 1000, not a demo or refurbished model. If it hadn't been a brand new one, I wouldn't have bought one from them. They do sell some optics as demos and factory refurbs, but you can get any model from any manufacturer brand new from them also.
