YEAR ONE = Highway robbery

I never have liked Year One resotration company... always way overpriced stuff. Anyways... I was looking at a little "fusible link" through them A 14 guage 5" long peice of wire and connectors. $19.99.... *gasp* really ??
I decided what the heck and was placing a order when the shipping amount came up as $13.99 freight. Uhmmmmm.... what ? I double checked the order and it still came out to $13.99 UPS freight. For a fricken wire ??? The thing only weighs a few ounces !! Hmm did I check I needed it Next Day Air Freight ? ? Nope.... Well... lets make a little phone call. So I am told that all items go UPS freight and that is indeed the charge. Uhm...:thebirdm:... ya... I told them they can take that wire..wad it up in a small little ball and shove it sideways. There is no way... even on UPS that thing should cost that much to get here. I guess I get to pay for a carboard box out of there scrap bin and some tape.. ya that makes it worth it....
I am willing to pay more for the right part, but I will not be rear-ended for freight too.

......so I got some 14 guage fusible link wire, two connectors and created the same thing for $4 bucks.

rant... ov'ah

Freight?? UPS Freight is for items that are 150 lbs or more. Seems like a handling charge is bundled in. If it was shipped in an economical way such as a padded envelop via USPS, it would be a couple bucks or so.
