I ship several saws a year and was kinda flabbergasted by the shipping raise the post office just instituted. I checked the price of a common saw (MS290) from my city to the west coast states and it had two options, one $56 and the other $63. I would have to add that to the price of the saw or take a loss on the sale and I'm not gonna do that. I, like others don't live near a Fedex place and I think the UPS place moved out recently so the Post Office is it. I'm going to use the calculator for shipping and not ship anything expensive for awhile. Someone on ebay told me I can't exclude the western states from my sales so I guess when the calculator puts in $63 they'll probably exclude themselves if they're smart.
