[QUOTE="Dracula, post: 1052545, member: 42691"] Not to defend this company, but many places omit the "handling" part of "shipping and handling" on web sites. I explained this to my kid recently when she complained about a shipping charge similar to this for a pretty light item on Amazon. Shipping is what it is. Everyone forgets about handling and what it means. Generally speaking, SOMEONE packs, labels and loads your package on it's way to you. And hopefully, those people aren't working for free. Sure, some companies offer free shipping, and I'm sure other companies dovetail their manpower into the price of the item, but, in general, this is why shipping costs more than the shipping cost to you.
