One of the biggest selling points to me for TEKNO is the 50% Lifetime Warranty, it would be really nice if the dealers could offer this service too, because extremely high shipping rates are what got me to stop sending parts in and I've switched brands because of this. What I mean with this statement is that I paid $9 to ship broken parts to TEKNO (for warranty claim), but was charged $37 in shipping for the same parts back... I contacted CS to identify the discrepancy and was promised to get a credit for the difference, so I placed the order and was only credited $16, so was still charged $21 for shipping (plus the original $9 it cost to ship the parts to TEKNO)... facepalm

The current brand that I am running charges me $6.50 flat shipping (one way), regardless of the size of the order
Many places will also offer free shipping on orders over $100.

Regardless, the whole issue with shipping could be eliminated if Dealers would be able to process the warranty claims.
