Till next time.
Any progress on the boss that you can share?
RPP has the most expensive shipping now out of all the vendors I order from. I ordered $59.47 on March 21 and shipping was $8.64. Today I went to order less items with a total less than a dollar more and shipping was $18.32? How does it jump $10 in less than one month?We are getting gouged by most of the vendors and online stores.
USPS Flat rate boxes and rates are as follows for CONUS;
small boxes cost $6.80
medium boxes are just over $13.00
Large boxes are around $18.00 on up.
I ship parts out via flat rate each week.
In most cases the package arrives from my location in Seattle to say Florida in 3-4 days. Closer to me obviously the quicker it gets.
Flat rate also has tracking and automatic $50 of insurance.
The boxes are free as well.
I have to assume that most real companies package at their facilities and USPS picks up.
The only real time involed is for the shipping address to be made and the box sealed shut.
RPP seems to be the cheapest of them charging just over $7.00 for the smallest flat rate box.
Bringing the pain since 1968
No LiPos. Small, mechanical parts that would have easily fit inside the smallest USPS box just like my previous order.If you ordered lipos there are new regulations for shipping as of a couple weeks ago.
I agree, call and ask. With the thousands I spend there each there I'd have no issue calling if it happened to meRPP has the most expensive shipping now out of all the vendors I order from.

That's good to know because RPP is one of my favorite places to order RC parts!JatoTheRipper,
It sure looks like there was an error when the store calculated the shipping costs. Postal rates have not increased recently and First Class actually went down a little. What were the items on your order? If you prefer, send an e-mail to support@rpphobby.com and we will solve this mystery.

Here is the screenshot.
I have seen the same type of rates when placing orders, so I canceled order . Been up for awhile
