    Yeah shipping costs so much from the US. I gave a guy my old video cards free because they were an upgrade for him, but shipping was $100. I felt so bad he had to pay so much for free stuff.

    The sad part is, that postage is only domestic. Sent from Brisbane to Port Douglas. It bloody sucks.

    Wow, $275 for postage, that is insane! You could buy a nice juice SSD for that price :s.

    Anyway, good luck with your shiny new system!

    Depending on the distance, you might be able to drive and pick up the system.
    In an '89 F250 Diesel 7.3 Liter truck (which is far from fuel efficient, compared to any newer vehicle), it only costs a little more than that to drive one-way from Vancouver to Calgary (or vice versa... over a thousand miles).

    I would have driven. But I simply don't have the time off work at the moment. But oh well, in a week I will be selling my soul for WoW again. :P
