Anyone know if mcm electronics changes the shipping charge before you pay or are they all
flat rate/minimum of 9.49 to ship? Between them charging extra for shipping and adafruit
charging extra for the device but admitting shipping is only $4 it sorta comes out the
same. I just don't know who I'd offer the mark up (if I have to pay one) to.

I'd be partial to giving my extra shekels to Adafruit. They do good stuff(?)

Try Mouser Electronics, we have gotten small things shipped for $2.

the problem with MCM at least when I bought my Pi was that they ship a
phone book sized catalog and charge you 10 or 15 bucks shipping. I
didn't argue, but when i found out why the shipping was so much I was
pissed.
I should have put this up earlier, to tell people to tell MCM that we
actually can read their catalogs and spam emails off that new fangled
thing we ordered on, the Internet, please keep the catalog and put the
pi in a bubble pack or small flat ($3.00) upsp priority container.
