Default Ouch that hurt. No lube?

A few days ago i ordered a 2 1/2" wide round belt buckle/ belt combo from Log cabin sport shop. I get the bill today for $37.90! Over $8 in shipping for a 1 1/2lb box[:@] And here i just bought 3 boxes of 225 powerbelts for $25 + $5 shipping. Darn people and their shipping prices are starting to really P me off.

For that weight priority mail is $6.20 -parcel post $5.67 -UPS $10.55
Could be the oil companies are hurting us by other ways than just at the pump!

That is one reason why ... if you have the stores, shopping locally is not always the worst deal. For instance I get to the big city about once a month if lucky. There I can buy Shockwaves for $11.00 a pack. But I can get them on line for less. That is until you figure in the shipping. Also if you do not buy from local merchants, they will pack up and move. And then when you do need something, there is no one around.

But your right.. this shipping and handling? It is getting a little out of line.

I have been doing my looking for anything (muzzleloading, reloading, and christmas shoping) online. Looking at the prices, figuring the prices with shipping, then going to local shops, most of the time finding it cheaper. I only buy online when I can not find what I am looking for.

exp: I lost the op. piston for my SKS ordered a new one with a scope mount for it $35 with shipping (murphy's law: what will happen can happen) . I found the piston I lost 2 days ago.[:@]
