Pelican Parts is great about having parts. Today I used them for the second time...I bought a speed bleeder for $11.25. The shipping for these little bleeder valves was $9.80! Is this normal!? If it is I guess I will only be able to use them for bulk orders. It really sucks.

Boy, that is a little odd.

If you go to the Pelican Speed Bleeder Shipping Cost Calculator, it shows that it costs more to ship them to your location than it does to ship them across the country via UPS or FedEx. It was $9.80 to Walla Walla and $8.08 to Connecticut. They must have factored in the cost of bribing the border guards to get into Washington State. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Perhaps Wayne can explain it.
