[Heathkit] Free Heathkit QF-1 Q Multiplier

[Glen Zook]

Seriously, $30 is a "bit" much including shipping and
packing for a QF-1.  They come off of eBay fairly
often for $10 or less.  Considering the weight you can
actually pack this particular item with crumpled
newspaper in a small box.  FedEx ground to anywhere in
the country is going to be less than $6 and about the
same for the Post Office.

Mail Boxes Etc. is one of the worst places to get
anything packed.  Now that the franchise principal is
UPS things definitely have not improved!  The problem
with Mail Boxes Etc. is that they overcharge for
packing and don't often do a good job.  What they are
going to do is to crumple up some brown paper and
stuff it around the QF-1 in a small box.  Then ship by
UPS which is more expensive than either FedEx ground
or the Post Office on this small of a package.

I suspect Mail Boxes Etc. would charge about $30.00 to
pack it well and ship it.
