Dude! That is ridiculous!! :o Who is the shipper???

I just got my SB fuse at the end of January, and it was $262 to central Illinois! ABF was my shipper... :dunno:

You guys are forgetting the "Power of Van". I got my fuse today in North GA. Original rate from ABF... $678.00
Rate after Vans 60% discount... $344.00

Thank you Van!

ok here is the skinny,

The day my fuse was shipped there were three other kits shipped by roadway as well,

the manifest combined all the weights and Roadway thought I should pay for all of them :o

so now the bill is "only" $315 and Fuse will be here Wed. :good job:

Well, THAT is much more inline with what the general charges are to get a kit to the eastern midwest states.

Glad you got that one figured out! :o :mrgreen:
