Does anyone know what the specific increase was in express shipping costs? It just cost me $45.70 to ship a box to WA when it used to be about $38. SHEESH! Talk about painful!

Maybe with the bad economy they aren't making the money they used to be making so now they jack the prices. :huh:
 
now there's a killer for ya... ouch.
