I just double checked my checking account and it was actually $56.72.
BUT, I forgot I had it insured for $1000. Not sure how of the $56 that was?
My bad.


I still think you should give GMC Pauls a call just to find out why it was so much. Again, not defending the place but paying TWICE what shipping should be would have me curious enough to call.

As for paying "handling" on things like this, it just seems wierd since their business IS handling parts. To charge you for it in addition to the "price" just seems strange. I am not saying they shouldn't be making money on the transaction, but should'nt that be covered with their markup?
