I wanted to buy a tool KD 850.
I thought gee Pelicancan supply that. I know that it would be Drop shipped .
I went on to the site and odered one. The cost was $52.80

Here is the Shipping.

Deliveries in the USA

FedEx or UPS Ground Delivery
(USA 48-States)
$10.50 The Actual cost from the UPS Site is $3.96 So I would pay $6.54 for the box


FedEx or UPS 3-Day Delivery
(USA 48-States) $9.50 <<<-----WTF 3 day is One dollar cheaper
FedEx or UPS 2-Day Air
(USA 50-States) $9.50 <<<<---WTF 2 day is One dollar cheaper
FedEx or UPS Next Day Air

(USA 50-States) $24.50
USPS Priority Mail

(USA 50-States) $7.95 <<--Last time I sent Priority last week The box was free. And the post man picks up. The cost to Ship Priority is $3.90

So my cost would be
Tool $52.50
Shipping $10.50
Tax $ 5.31
Total $68.31

Wow I said that too much so I went to Foogle and found the same KD 850 for $41.35 and even though the place is in New York only $6.50 for shipping UPS Ground.


So $47.85 or $68.31 I will let you figure out where I purchased the tool.
