Why is SlikStik's shipping so high?

<< < (3/4) > >>

Quarters:
When I sell something on ebay etc. I calculate shipping to California (I live in Canada) and give a flat rate shipping to the continental US based on that price. Sometimes I gain a buck or two sometimes I lose same. It's just easier that way. If someone contacts me with shipping alternatives I am always willing to calculate specific rates. As has been said earlier in this thread contact Christian. He seems a reasonable dude. I'm sure you can work something out.

Sucks huh?

Maybe you should just drive over there...

If they allowed me to drive there it would save me a lot of cash. :)

Seriously though $30 is really double what one should expect to pay which is why I'm wondering about what's going on. I've sent synthesizers via UPS across the country for that kind of money for crying out loud. :)

I went there to pick up a Tornado. Just give them a call first. ITs pretty close by me too. Hey what part of topwn are you in ?

A flat rate is probably the case if it wasn't an error generated by the web site. I've always heard wonderful things about SlikStik & I sent them an email today about my concern as well as an offer to pick up the goodies myself.

I'd love to give them a call if I could find their number on the site. Under their "Contact" section all that was listed was for a fax machine.

I'm in sunny Red Bank. :)

lostwire,

   You are more then welcome to come pick up anything you order in person to save the shipping costs. Email Attn: Jerry at info@slikstik.com with your request and we can work out a coupon code so when you place your order the shipping charges will be removed.

P.S. Thanks for all the support fellas.
