Ok guys.... here is one for you.

I have been adding more Theobens to the safe and I am wanting to add more spares to make sure I can keep things running. I took a look over at the RAW site and found the spares that I am wanting......BUT....... the shipping rates are NUTS! For 10 little bits and bobs,
Barrel location screw for Rapids × 2
Bottle "O" rings (pack of 5) × 1
Bolt Circlip × 5
Authentic RAW Rapid Air Worx PVC Patch × 1
RAW Pressure Guage × 1
and the shipping is around $30!! These are all little parts that should be able to fit into a padded envelope!

Is there another source for reliable parts that are not going to cost half the amount of the of the parts for shipping?

i have thoughts about that , if you take all the money out of selling hard to find parts " soon they wont be a complaint about price but a complaint that no one sells them any more ! parts will dry up if you dont allow them to make a buck , shipping is work as well as a expense . last time someone wanted to trim everything out of my job i thought about what it took to do the work and what i would make and decided i had other things to do

Minimum wages have got nuts ... likely paying above that for sound and reliable employees .... last I checked no ones working for free :eek:
Figure order takers, parts pullers and a parts packers wage comes before what ever shipping miens is used & There You Have It
