Angry Shipping cost
I have responded to two people looking for parts recently. After getting burned by shipping cost in the past, I now quote a price plus actual shipping costs. I have a guy in New York looking for a grill, and a guy in Kansas looking for a hood. I took the grill to several places today to get quotes for shipping. A 2 and 1/2 pound grill from Ohio to New York by UPS would cost $342 and change. Two other places that I went to said that they will no longer ship car parts. And the trucking company that I was refered to only charges by the full load, that would be $2,197.12. This is insane. I can deliver it myself for less.
