They originally quoted me $104 for shipping a BAKflip tonneou cover via UPS second day air and said that was how much they get charged by UPS to ship it. So I asked them how much UPS charged them to ship it to a customer in FL and they looked it up and said $40 for UPS ground service, which is how they send it to FL customers. I said since a FL customer gets free shipping, would they agree to discount my shipping charges by $40 so I benefit the same as a customer in Florida? They agreed!
So I paid them $64 to ship it to me via UPS second day air. That was the first time I didn't completely screwed for shipping charges just because I live in Hawaii. Ask and you will receive! Autoanything.com rocks!
BTW, the Coupon Code "fullsizechevy" did work and I got 10% off the cost of the BAKflip. $523.76.

my old music teacher said he started a phone call with "you bastards" while calling an online music site called MusiciansFriend and he got free shipping... mainly because they have said FREE SHIPPING for about the past 2 years now and excluded AK and HI. But this method, i think it might actually work out for me (I have a hard time cussing people out that i dont know or hate)

I have a truck. It gets me from A to B. Why I spend so much money changing it, I will never know. Is there a cure for this disease? I have no idea what I would be using all my money for if there was a cure.
