Yes, they charged me $4.67, and I can't complain.  That's
more than fair for ~ $120 of parts.  The check idea sounds
good for those times I need just a few pieces of something,
but I'm usually too impatient, and $4.67 is defintely
worth my time.

If you mail in your order with a check, they don't charge shipping. If
you order from their web site, they do charge, though the charges are
reasonable. Some other distributors hit you with exhorbitant shipping
and handling fees.
