If you don't like the shipping charges, don't order from them.

However, I have found that as I add items to an order, I've actually seen the total shipping charges decline.

Thanks, but I ain't wise-I'm a learned man. If I was wise I'd never had to learn about women.

....Been thru three wives and a dozen livins.......They all tried to bankrupt me and took my best stuff when they absconded....one even took my dog that she hated and was jealous of.

I miss that dog.

Well, I don't really need anything else. So what? I just look through the parts book, pick random crap to purchase just so shipping fee will go down?
Righttttttt...

I do need some new Levi's.
What aisle are those on?

As a "left coaster" I cannot figure out why the DEEP discounters are on the East Coast, there is no 20% off dealers out here---that I have found, what makes the East dealers so aggressive?

There is a cost to doing business, stocking, store overhead, employees so I guess small orders just get penalized. Don't they realize the next order may be a big one. Why doesn't someone e-mail them this concept and it would average out over the long run?
