RE: Extreme Flight__88
Forgot to mention the shipping rate-I wish the carriers would offer us a flat rate! We charge exactly what we are charged by the carrier, not one penny more. We never charge any bogus handling fees and we pass along any volume discount we receive from the carrier. We are happy to supply the weight and dimensions of each box so you can get an online quote from the carrier. You will find that we charge considerably less than what is quoted by the carrier. There is no way we can compete with a huge entity like Tower Hobbies! They have hundreds of employees and ship thousands of packages a day. Their shipping discount from the carriers are enormous I'm sure. We are a small family run business with 4 employees (my wife and myself included) that ships an average of 50 packages a day. We haven't raised tthe price on our 50cc aircraft since we began selling them in 2004 even though our cost has gone up over 35%. We can't afford to take a hit on the shipping.
