They ship with the USPS for $26. Ouch. That is from WA to CA. Anyone get a cheaper shipping rate?

Out the door for $81.45.

Estimate of weight is about ~25lbs. By a quick estimate on ups.com, ups can send it for $16. Wonder why they can't ship it ups?

Edit: I was wrong. I figured out the ups, it is $12 via ups. NICE!

That makes it even a better deal than before.
$71.50 + $1.99 shiping is a few bucks cheaper than $64.99 + $11 shipping. And I thought that I was out of luck with the sale ending. I might just have to buy one now.

Thanks for sharing Eddie.

CRAP!! I missed it. I completely forgot about buying a spool and now the deal is over. If anyone hears about another sale (either at geeks.com or elsewhere), PLEASE let me know.

Thanks.

If you don't have a crimper and ends, 70 bucks is the best i've found

Geeks.com is having a sale,


I won't be buying stuff from them for a while. Geeks.com site hacked in December.
