Title: Where can I find T Molding without ridiculous shipping costs?
Post by: Arc Kalocal on August 27, 2013, 12:52:40 pm
Like the topic implies, I'm looking for T Molding. I like the purple stuff on tmolding.com and nearly ordered it but the shipping costs are outrageous. Does anyone know of a good alternative? It doesn't have to be purple, I'm just looking for a good price really.

Of course groovygamegear wins. That site never fails me. The fact that there's no minimum quantity helps a ton. Less than half the price of any site I've checked for shipping. Thanks Delusional!

No problem.  You can save even more if you order other stuff with it.   :applaud:

Yeah, I already did that LOL. The T-Molding was the afterthought where I went, oops, forgot I needed that.

Being in Canada I found that most places charged $20/25 shipping for t-molding.
I thought no way that could be the case, I mean it doesnt weigh much.

I found (and use) gameonmolding from eBay. (forgive me as I can't seem to log in to verify seller)
They shipped for about $7/8 at the time and the molding was about $6.

Keep in mind for me, even locally (Toronto Canada) molding was about $0.60FT + 13% HST.
So all in all, to my door, eBay was same price or slightly cheaper, but saved me the time and gas!

Sadly now the seller charges $14 to ship. I did message him asking if rates had gone up with USPS (which I feel is the best shipping), however I got no response. I know the thing on eBay now seems to be making money off the shipping. Guess this was always the case.

Either way the seller now comes in about $4/5 more than my local seller, but again saves me a drive.
