True but not NEARLY as expensive if using the shipping store to pack and ship.

I've been finding ups and fedex to still be pretty close to each other. Depends on dimensions and weight.

DHL is typically cheaper than ups or fedex. I've been using them a lot lately and drop off at my local Office Depot right down the street from my office. But I just shipped a frame/fork using UPS (and dropping off a the local store) and it only cost about 30 bucks. It only went from Houston to Dallas though. But it was still the cheapest price I found.
