amainhobbies shipping prices seem high?
Has anyone else noticed this? It seems like it just started, I use to get small parts and items for $3-$5 shipped with first class and priority shipping.
All I wanted was a $35 tonyz screw kit, but they want $10.49 for priority, and there is nothing cheaper. It only weighs 1 lb.

Ya it is priority, that a big box for a small package, I mean it could fit in a small priority box, or a padded envelope.
I mean I get cheaper shipping prices directly from tonys screw site, which never happens.

Instead of complaining why don't you call them and ask. They have always been very helpful whenever I have spoken to a rep on the phone. Sometimes people make mistakes.

yes..their shipping prices have definitely gone up!
I ordered 12 aka black tire inserts for a steal of $.99 each...
when i went to choose shipping...it had shipping cost about $14 for the cheapest option..
so i went and added a couple more inserts to bring the total to 16 inserts...spreading that ridiculous shipping cost over more items..
went back to choose shipping again AND IT WENT UP! for 4 more foam inserts? i know they are using the same box for 12 vs 16 foams..
definitely checking all of my options before ordering with them now..
