[Boatanchors] Electronic Goldmine parts

[mark depaepe]

I ran into that when ordering small parts for my Tandem bicycle. When they said shipping was going to be $20 for a box of parts that weighed less than a pound and was 6" square I told them never mind I would buy my parts elsewhere they offered free shipping if I would place the order.  So I paced the order and two days later the parts arrived.

It's not getting any smarter out there.  You just have to come to grips with stupidity and make it work for you.
