Orion's shipping charges are getting ridiculous.
It cost me $13.95 for standard fedex ground shipping for 2 2" filters from Cupertino or Watsonville, CA to Los Angeles, CA. I checked fedex's website for rates (including $200.00 insurance) and was quoted $5.00. What gives? I honestly wasn't too upset about the shipping charges when I ordered because Orion usually uses oversized boxes with those nice air filled plastic cushion bags for extra protection, but when I saw that 0.69 cent brown padded envelope on my door step yesterday I felt seriously ripped off. No need for anyone to reply I just needed to vent. :C
