JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, THEY GET YOU ON THE SHIPPING. IMAGE IF YOU BUY A BOW SIGHT FOR $200, IT WEIGHTS VERY LITTLE AND $20 SHIPPING? LONG LIVE THE LOCAL PRO SHOPS. I SAVE ALOT MORE BY PRICE SHOPPING THE ONES IN MY AREA. ALOT OF THE TIME, YOU CAN GET THEM TO PRICE MATCH OR EVEN BEAT EACH OTHERS PRICES TO GET YOUR BUSINESS. SUPPORT THE SMALL GUY AND SAVE $. PLUS I GET TO HEAR ALL THIER GOOD STORIES, ABOUT THE DEER THAT HAVE BEEN TAKEN IN MY AREA.

The $20 isn't just for the shipping. It covers the labor getting the item from the shelf or storage, packing the box, addressing it, cost of box, etc. There are other costs involved then just the shipping. Anyway it does seem rather steep though when considering I sent two sets of longjohns back to Bass Pro for all of $6.
I also just sent a longbow, the box was 75" long, was insured and signature certified for under $18 priority.

I think most place have some sort of scale or rule of thumb methodand don'tusethe actual cost of shipping.
Some places still do though and won't give you the shipping charges until they are computed. But not many.
