Umm I have them on sale for the same price $10 shipping

P.S. our shipping to you would be about the same using the algorithm for shipping ups. It isnt cheap to send a hydroforce. The box size is like shipping 25lbs you can check go to ups.com and use my zip 84057 and see for yourself how much it would be.

No ups charges pretty close to the same and it is only going to go up. Now if you want a hydroforce I'm charging a flat rate so your getting an even better deal.

Re: Dave...

Dave,

"4 gal of fission $59 then $25 shipping."

Where you getting your products? That's dirt cheap, 100 bucks a case at JD 25$ for shipping.

I've wanted to try it, but the ph is to high. Not safe for stain-resistant carpet scares me away.

I had some of sapphire's surge & dynaforce, both did fine. Still use them.

Everyone has seen the jump in fuel prices recently. Shipping is high and likely to get higher during the spring and summer.

One way to save is to consolidate and place larger orders at one time rather than several small orders. Some distributors that have a flat rate for shipping or shipping fee based on the size of the order are actually losing money on shipping larger orders. May as well take advantage.

May have changed, IS in Greensboro NC gave free shipping on orders $200 or more. I always used that got what I wanted brought right to my door. Guys keep in mind that if you drive to a Dist. say 25 mi. away you are going to have a minimum of 1 hr drive time plus what time you are there, plus gas and wear and tear on your vehicle. I don't know about you but my time alone is worth way more than $25.00.

You think that's a rip off? You got it good.... Any gallon I order, I need to add $25 per gallon.... A case, $100 for just shipping.... And everything I feel like I'm getting raped on shipping charges, I think of our friends "down under" and up in "freeloaderville"... Always makes me feel a little bit better... shiteatinggrin

I buy local.... Because quite frankly, it's still cheaper then bringing in the products... Unless I buy a pallet worth....

The only issue I have with Shipping is that so many companies that charge for it as a addon try to get out of telling you the cost before ordering from them.

Fact is there is no such thing as FREE shipping, someone will pay for it.

Sorry people but shipping is a racket.......the private way to screw you...

I was sent an item and got nailed on the shipping...

sent the same item to a guy further away then the place I received it from for almost half the cost.....

we ship things all over the US......all it takes is a few seconds to find a cheaper way to send something....

Still it's $45 cheeper than most sell it before shipping.

Shipping even cheep could be $45.

So, you saved $90!!!!

That shipping not being added on at the time of the first payment makes it seem more shocking.

Go to ups.com and enter your zip code at the zip code from where the item will ship. you will see we lose money on shipping every single time even if you don't qualify for a discount as we do not charge handling and since everyone pays with a card if we lose 2-3% depending on the card and that doesn't include boxes. Those things aren't free. the box joey's hydro force shipped in today cost $2. We haven't even talked about how much it cost to have stuff shipped I to us. I doesn't just magically appear.

So yes someone does pay........and no it isn't you guys (most of the time)

P.S. even if you pay $50 to get something from one side of the country to the other that's still freaking amazing if you stop and think about it. Hell getting something from one side of the town to your door for $50 is still cheaper then driving 30 minutes to pick it up.

Red.. Yes it is, well was.....much like anything else the shipping companies have become smarter, and consolidate a lot more....which why sometimes, that shit should be $10 to ship, and other times, yes $100s I get that... in fact if you stopped to think about how much $$$$$$ in shipping is on that fooking plane or truck :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Blue.....ehhhh depends on what it is......what happens when they send you something WRONG!!!!!!!!! and it dont work..."but but my part # blah blah...BULLSHIT" where on the flip side...drive 30 mins, take the old one with you and make sure it works...is A LOT cheaper
