Quoted from smokedog:That's odd. I've never experienced that and place orders monthly.
Well Mr. Fancy Pants, perhaps you would like to share with the rest of us how you don't get F*ck up the ass by Marcos shitty shipping policy to Canada.
Quoted from smokedog:You said the mark up was double. I said that in my experience it is not when ordering through Starburst.
Nothing fancy about it.
Sorry, thought you were questioning the validity of my statement about Marco wanting $105 for shipping on a $250 order. My bad
Quoted from volcanodiver:you have 8 legs in that order and who know what else, thats a heavy order. No wonder its high.
legs were the heaviest items, rest were switches, plastics, rubbers. It still doesn't justify the high shipping.
Quoted from Dee-Bow:You should also apologize for talking like such a douche bag Mr. Poopy pants
Clearly this has nothing to do with you and everything is cool between smokedog and myself so not sure why you feel the need to troll. Unless you have something worth sharing about Marco's shipping, the topic of this thread, I suggest you just keep quiet.
Quoted from volcanodiver:yeah, it easily justifies the shipping both due to weight and dimensions.
I have had an entire pin shipped for just slightly more than that and close to what they charge as "priority mail" Ontario to Alberta and Nova Scotia to Ontario. Both distances are further to me than Marco and a pin is a lot more "weight and dimensions" compared to 8 legs. It is actually cheaper to ship from Europe and China than Marco. Just double that cost and it was the cost to ship a full sized multicade cab to my house from the US. Sorry I still cant see the justification for 8 legs being $105 US ( $145 CAN) for shipping.
