Wow - didn't realize...
« on: August 04, 2012, 06:57:49 pm »
Just ordered some stuff from GGG, unfortunately he didn't have the color T-mold I needed.  Went over to T-Molding.com and they had the proper color.  Here's the kicker - shipping on T-Molding is almost as much as the cost of the molding!!!  Just out of curiosity I checked the shipping from GGG for the same amount of molding and it was about the same. 

Why is T-Mold so expensive to ship, the stuff doesn't weigh much at all?

On that note, anybody in Phoenix have about 30' of spare they could sell me?  Any color at this point.

Size of the box required to ship it.  Large boxes will balloon costs faster than heavier boxes up to a certain weight.

Makes sense.  I guess the stuff doesn't roll up very tight huh?  Can ya tell this is my first time?  Sooo close to being done it hurts.

not sure if it helps, but you can contact tmolding.com and ask for special shipping where he sends it via mail instead of ups. He will give you a code for placing your order.

Went ahead and ordered the T-Molding.  Doing the Galaxian Green molding with a deep purple cabinet.  Hope it looks decent!
