    shipping charges

    I ordered some model A parts and the website stated actual shipping charges would apply. I only ordered $190.00 worth of parts so I figured may be $20 to $25 dollars. I was shocked to be charged $68.00 in shipping and $4.00 in handling and box fee when the parts arrived. Thanks for letting me vent.
