    I am not sure. I know what you mean though. I was going to buy from an online store, but as they wouldn't get me even an approximate price quote I ended up buying from an individual who could give me a shipping quote... imagine wanting to know how much something would cost in total before buying, shocking!

    I've bought ME flex from ********** before, but I was overseas so the shipping costs are different. Because flex is about 3' long, it requires a tube to ship, and FedEx, UPS, and USPS have a surcharge for tubes. So it not going to be dirt cheap like you might expect from Amazon.com or LL Bean or others who ship in such huge volumes as to have unbelievable discounts from the shipping firms.

    Since ********** does not have a checkout system yet, email them with your delivery address in full, and ask them for a shipping quote. Then make an informed decision. You can't get hurt that way.

    Just be aware, that no matter whom you buy it from online, the shipping costs will not be nominal.

    Cheers,
    Bill
