Reply to "Shipping is EXPENSIVE these days."

Those foreign shipping costs must be a misprint they are completely wrong.

Everything I buy in the way of Rolling stock, locos, and most books come from America.

If I buy an Atlas locomotive it usually costs about $80 shipping. some I have bought for $70 shipping One piece of rolling stock costs about 30-40 dollars shipping I'm talking about the last year not 20 years ago! and yes sometimes the shipping is probably worth more than the items but I don't sit down and have a cry I keep buying I have a passion for USA O scale trains.

I expect my items to take no more than 2 weeks from America to West Australia and most do, so I don't pay massive same day shipping costs just above normal shipping.

There are some sellers that do refund me for shipping charges when I have paid to much, I like that they get return business, some hobby shops give you the choice of Shipping costs.

If a seller or a hobby shop can't tell you the price before you pay don't buy it unless you have dealt with them before otherwise the skies the limit you could get charged almost anything, think of a number!

I could tell you the good hobby shops and sellers that are honest/ have the knowledge and want your business but I won't for two reasons.

1. Its likely to be erased from the thread.

2. It's about international shipping costs, entirely different to American domestic shipping costs.

So I'm happy days you blokes have the choice, support your shows and pay no shipping.

Roo. In West Australia.
