I spend $6.95 for a bag of screws and it costs $9.95 for shipping and handling. I shopped almost all of the parts houses and they were all pretty much the same. I think the customer is the one getting handled. But what are you going to do when you can't go downtown and buy these special fasteners for your truck. I have been putting off ordering a painted front bumper because it seems like everyone has a $20.00 oversize charge they stick on top of their shipping. I had intended to drive down to Restoration World and pick it up. It would probably cost as much for gas and grub but at least I would get to shop in the store and see what they have.

Imagine my surprise when looking at some other stuff, I found Jegs had the bumper on sale for $91.15 and when I went to check out along with sales tax all they wanted for shipping was $11.99 and they sent it FedEx. I had it in 2 days. So why does it cost $9.95 to send a pack of screws you can put in your pocket.

Rant over.
