577NitroExpressBuffalo Arms - shipping costs
Does anyone live near Buffalo Arms?
I have been searching through their website and they are selling Jamison .577 NE 3" brass for $3.00/case.
I was going to buy 50 cases, but when it calculated UPS ground shipping to my zip code (19030), they said they were going to charge $41.14!!!!!
THAT IS CRAZY!!!
I just got eight boxes of 570 grain Woodleigh bullets for my .500 NE from MidwayUSA.com and the shipping only cost me $12.36 - for eight boxes of 570 grain bullets - 25 in each box! 17.4 lbs!
Something ain't right there!
Does anyone live close to Buffalo Arms? If so, I would love to talk to you about helping me out.
Thanks,

craigsterI'd be callin' them back and asking them to double check the shipping $'s. Something isn't right, they ought to be able to ship you 50lbs of stuff at that price, let alone 50 pieces of brass.

Lhook7I ordered 100 cases of .500 NE 3" from them yesterday and the shipping was around $11.00. There must be some kind of mistake with your order.

577NitroExpressI called them and spoke to them about the Jamison .577 3" brass - they are out of stock and don't know when they'll get more.
When the goods do arrive, I'll place the order and ask about the shipping. I think the computer was really off base with that calculation.
Glad that computer isn't doing my taxes!
