First I have to say in general I'm very happy to stop by the store, your selection is second to none for the firearm enthusiast in the area.
That said, I'd also love to make the odd purchase that needs to be shipped as it's just a bit outside of being a reasonable drive to the store. Unfortunately you appear to like to tack $4-$5 dollars on to the Postal Rate, that's your prerogative, BUT, don't try to tell someone who knows what it costs to ship stuff around the Province obvious bs. Two Items about 0.5 kg should have been $16.xx, and I got generous and doubled the weight, $18.xx, not $22.xx. A handling fee, fine, but I'm not paying an extra $5 to have an employee spend 5 minutes boxing it up. Sorry, but it ain't happening.
I'm not starting this thread to give you grief, just letting you know you lost a sale, it may be wiser to tack a $0.05 onto each item, than pocket a % of the shipping. Having an Employee tell me that they just enter the information into the computer, and that's the rate would be fine if I wasn't sitting there entering the details into Canada Post's rate calculator at the same time. Rather than argue I just cancelled the sale and ordered it from another sponsor.
