Bill,

Or he could be getting a volume account discount (mine is lower than what it 
was last year)

Lee;
I checked FedEx rates to Pittsburgh from where the guy is.  He is claiming
about $40 for shipping.  Assuming it is shipped Wednesday here are the
charges for a 9 by 9 by 10 box:  In cast the copied rate table is cut, the
cost for overnight ranges from $51.74 to $86.34.  If he is doing 2nd day it
is about $28 (plus they add some more in for gas surcharge etc so it would
be in the mid $30's by the time he got his bill. SHIPPING IS NO LONGER CHEAP
!!  I guess he is doing 2nd day or he could not do it for what he is
charging.
