shipping charge: does this seem right?
SeanFu:
I live in the southwest burbs.
Unfortunately the only time I can get away during the week is during Rush hour. I drove up to the warehouse for surplusvillage.com to pick up a monitor (just north of O'hare) and the round trip ended up taking 4 hours !!!
I would say I've got more money than time, but the way this project is going I'm pretty much running out of both.
SNAAAKE:
LOL I am sorry not lauging at the tragedy but happ SERSIOULLY need to fix their problems.
Why ship a roll of vinyl on a tube and charge $50 shipping when you can just put that in a box or something :P
Yeah I paid 57$ shipping for a monitor bezel and marquee retainer.What you gonna doh,can't buy em elsewhere.
::)
ErikRuud:
This has been discussed before.
The shipping cost for oversize items is due to UPS's shipping rates, not Happ. If you ask them to, Happ will cut marquee retainers to fit in a smaller box which will reduce the shipping cost.

Came home tonight and my stuff was on the back porch. Your right about the marquee stuff, it was in a 5 foot tube, verything else was packed well and I got it very quickly. I even got my Happ track ball that I ordered from Gatorcade.com in the same shipment. Next time I might take the drive though, maybe stop at Santa's Village. LOL

$57!?!? OK - now I feel better.
It did show up 1 day after I ordered it, which was pretty cool.
