Parts Prices, WTF?!

Last week I have 7 WOMs lack 1 from being 2 full sets. $150 plus shipping to Ca.. I box it take it to post office, she measures and weighs it, $29. Even writes it on the box . I get the guys $179 and take it back, same idiot weighs and measures again, and says' "Sorry, but it is oversize" USPO can not ship this!" WTF??? OK she is just some kind of stupid or totally incompetent?.
SO I make 60 mi trip other direction to a PostIt store, all I can do. They charge me, $155.21 I ask WTF and all I get is it goes to Ca, that is expensive. So I ask don't YOU guys make $$$ doing all this for Fed X!? WTF anyway, He says oh no. Yea right.
So I am wondering if I just got screwed BAD> I call FedX and tell my story and find their charges would be $55. I call another store in another town that handles Fed X etc and they give me a price of $132. Still crazy! I cleared $25 after 100 mi. on the road! So anyway I sent it own from the PostIt store, and the dude got it and I told him the whole sordid deal. He says, thank you.
I said, you are welcome.
You must have the same lady I deal with here, Fat , blonde and talks like a mouse with an attitude !
