Hi Wayne,

I'd be fooling myself if I thought I was more important to abcfab 
than any other Customer, but if you email me (off-board) your ebay 
userid, I'll inquire the next time I send him email.

Was he going to use USPS Priority to ship?  I always ask about the 
flat rate boxes, especially for small heavy items.  I got 50 pounds 
of transformers (from someone else) shipped for $7.70...  The flat 
rate boxes are $8.40 now but he didn't pad it when I bought.  In any 
case, you should negotiate shipping up front to avoid surprises.  
Maybe the material you bought wouldn't fit in one of the flat rate 
boxes...

His prices might be a little better if you buy off eBay.  Check the 
eBay prices first to see what things have sold for to get an idea of 
what you should pay.  I've been getting material from him for around 
2-3 cents/sq inch, maybe less.

Regards,
Dennis
