Warning - Jimsautoparts.com - shipping $$$

If you must deal with a vendor, put a stipulation that if it cost in excess of $xx to ship including any handling fees, the vendor is to contact and get approval.

Send a follow up e-mail to them after the conversation stating the same.

BTW, Jim's is FAMOUS for this type of thing. $2 in actual postage and charge $20 for shipping.

I just bought a few things from Mancinis. The shipping per the site was right at $20. I called and spoke with one of the salesman and asked if they used flat rate USPS. They did. Said, if it's going to cost more than 10-12 to ship call me first. Shipped items in Flat Rate, $10.20 shipping.
