Yep pretty disgusting isn't it...!!!
I guess we are still considered "fringe elements" ;o)
Actually I have gotten cheaper rates that way....
from smaller techno items forwarded from relatives on the west coast..
The time two sticks of RAM was going to cost mmore to ship than to purchase is a case in point...
Heck , even "barged" items don't ususally take that long 2-3 weeks,
but I guess the "I want it yesterday" mentality remains the
"motus operendi" these days
( warning my latin is a little rusty !!!)
