I really want a few sets of the CLF Research knobs, but have always choked on the ridiculous shipping rates (prices to ship one knob to my house):
(copy and pasted from G&L online Store)
USPS Priority Mail International $34.22
USPS Priority Mail Express International $44.10
UPS® Standard $51.10
UPS Worldwide Expedited® $187.08
UPS Worldwide Saver® $234.95
Not that I would ever pay $235 US to ship a single knob. But even the least expensive option is an unnecessary premium. It's not fine china or cyrstal. It doesn't weigh a lot, and can come in a pretty small package. Regular post should suffice, at a fraction of the price.
To compare, the same size knob at Stewmac (Copy and Pasted from Stewmac) ships for:
International Airmail $12.27
FedEx Priority Canada $32.35
USPS Priority International $41.85
I don't have a lot of complaints when it comes to G&L - but their online shipping leaves me alternately shaking and scratching my head.
