Silicone Jacket (sq) from Power Support
I wanted to get one of these, so I went to their site to order one. I added it to my cart and then updated my postal code and shipping location and whatnot, to see the shipping costs. It said it would be $48.73. If that isn't ridiculous, I don't know what is.. since I live in Canada. It's not even overseas. How can this be? Has anyone else from Canada ordered one of these and if so, how much was the shipping?

Are there other shipping options?
And yeah, I agree. Sometimes shipping prices from the US are so outrageous, they often cost more than the item itself.
# 2 Re: Silicone Jacket (sq) from Power Support
Oh and you may want to do a search on Ebay, which may turn up cheaper prices.
# 3 Re: Silicone Jacket (sq) from Power Support
Yeah, there was only one shipping option. I think it was like UPS Worldwide Express or something.. Would that have anything to do with the outrageous price? Anyway, I emailed them about this. I just find it ludicrous that the shipping cost is over double the cost of the item itself.

Forgot to mention... I searched on ebay, but I didn't find any Power Support cases.
# 5 Re: Silicone Jacket (sq) from Power Support
How much does the case itself cost?
When companies charge such high shipping prices like those, I just can't help but think that they're making money off of it. Totally dishonest and immoral.

The case is only $22, which is why I think it's ridiculous that shipping would be $48.73. A friend who lives in the US ordered the same thing, but the shipping was really cheap.. like under a few bucks.

I doubt they would since I don't even know them in person. I don't think my parents would be too happy about it either.
