No tax or shipping charge even.

Or maybe my time is more valuable than yours. One of my wheels has been going strong since 1993 with no broken spokes, many thousands of miles. That only happens if you spend some extra money for a better rim and the wheel is build near perfect true, dish and round. The time saved in far less frequent truing that one wheel was well worth the $40 I payed for my truing stand.

Let us know how your wheel build is holding up in about 14 years.
