You’re comparing with retail shipping rates which only retail customers pay. Commercial accounts have negotiated rates/discounts based on volume.

>> Semi-off topic, but I wanted to thank Dave for the referral to pirateship.com, and echo his recommendation. I had prepared a shipment for FedEx which, with insurance, was going to run $63. I checked pirateship.com, and the UPS cost there was $37! Shipping UPS direct has always been more costly than FedEx, so I rarely used it. Using pirateship was definitely a money saver.

>>>  I have a two month old KPA 500 that needs warranty service and I was wondering if anyone else has been expected to pay shipping to get their equipment repaired under warranty? I am a 78 year old on SS and don't believe I should have to pay to have a defective unit for repair. I would appreciate any comments. Rich KB9RP
