RE: OVERCHARGED SHIPPING CHARGES FROM GSP
I was not quick enough! I ordered a C-160 Transall from GSP on line last night. I noted the 0.00 for the shipping on the confirmation e-mail. This morning I happened upon this thread and immediately became concerned about the shipping charges. I called GSP this morning with the intent of cancelling the order. I spoke with Leon in the shipping department who said the shipping would be $24.00 via UPS and $10.00 extra for the oversize shipping container. In view of UPS's high shipping rates to begin with I felt that was reasonable and kept the order in place. Leon just sent me an e-mail confirming the total will be $34.00. Apparently Irwin has rubbed a lot of people the wrong way to say the least and that seems to have been confirmed. Hopefully I will not be sorry for keeping the order in place. I should have looked a little more before I ordered it in that I just noticed Chief aircraft has the same plane $20.00 cheaper, live and learn!
