Marco's postage discount
« on: December 19, 2009, 06:50:10 PM »
After noticing that i was missing the slingshot kicker head on one of the slingshot kickers on Paragon i went and ordered a couple from Marco's,when i went to process the order the postage costs were $39.00.I was not paying that for something that weighs bugger all,so i emailed them and requested a lower postage cost.After dealing with the spare parts manager the postage was dropped to $16.00 which i was happy with.I could have purchased from PBR but with the $25.00 from my bank for the draft it was better to go with Marco's who were cheaper for the item anyway.You do not know until you ask so in this case i did ok.

Done well to get them to drop postage by that much they would get a lot more buisness if they made there postage more realistic

Most sites use an automated postal calculator and most can be way off when it comes to small orders.  It's always good to communicate with the company when ordering overseas if you feel the shipping charges may be a bit high.

 
The ramp business was very very good to me.
