$25.00 shipping??????
it doesn't cost $25.00 to ship a small box....
we get big giant jets sent to us for less....

For an express box from china, that's pretty normal.
If you get big giant jets sent to you from china for $25, let me know who that carrier is!
What does a starter cost from other companies? $125? $150?

How about talking to the one billing you instead of complaining here?

Since I ship internationallyon a daily basis, I would say this sounds quite reasonable to me if it is going any method other than parcel post...

it is coming from China ya know, not exactly a short distance to travel...btw, who is shipping you "Giant Jets" for less? I want them shipping for me

Jeeze, I thought you ment the price for the starter. That's like what, 1/2 to 1/3 what it would cost for any other turbine...

But its not like they don't send the joe jet guy in NY a couple of dozen of starters at one time.
30 in a box for $25.00 .....not $25 each.

I just don't like being told a high shipping price to cover a low sale price.

buyer beware...

No offense intended... just seems like bad inventory management.

You have to pay somebody to carry it half way around the planet for you...$25 is dirt cheap. How far could you drive (or fly) on $25 worth of gas??

There is no difference in what he did or did not do to you than what tower or horizon does to all of us every day... Order a GLOW PLUG and it will cost you $7.50 from ILL. To KY... Hmmmm.

I don't think they keep any inventory in NY, it all comes direct from China.

John,
I was travel in China for 5 weeks last summer, I sent 2 boxes (4ftX5ft, weigh ~ 30 lbs each) home during the trip. The cost of shipping for each box is ~ USD 150.00. It took 5 weeks to arrive to California in bad shape...Just for references.

It cost me $125 for my F-86 to get shipped from FL to Md. Tower and Horizon aren't doing it to you by themselves; the shippers are helping out as well.
