[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2470589, member: 115658"] ^ explains it. I am an old IT guy & marvel at the exent & reliability of the Midway site. A huge variety of items, all easily located. Periodic free shipping $49 and over with some items shipped free. Returns easily done. Choice of shipping. All good business in a competitive world. Larry has helped me keep shooting during the current component emergency. Other sites have helped me also. I like Powder Valley and its Captcha feature upon log in. Larry's email indicates some effort will be made to make shipping more efficient. Like avoiding use of a 192 cubic inch box to ship an item that will easily fit inside a 36 cubic inch box. The nice USPS carrier can fit smaller boxes inside my community cluster mail box. The UPS truck picking up Larry's items can drive away with 500 or so items vs 100 items. Items will not gain sliding momentum inside boxes and get bashed up. I bought a 17.0 cubic inch box of bullets from Cabello's that was shipped in a 215.625 cubic inch box. The box containing the 1.243 pound box of bullets was marked, "HEAVY". All this indicates established waste. The 1.243 bullet box required wads of paper packing to retrict sliding momentum - more waste. Added shipping costs were probably added to price paid. Probably will keep buying from Larry's Midway.
