Shipping costs more than $119 per year. You’re paying for it elsewhere.
I don’t use Amazon because of the huge conterfiet problem Amazon products have (which they seem to ignore) and/or not really knowing who you are buying from.

I would have to *gasp* actually get off my behind and *sigh* drive to the store to get it, though.

AMAZON will take over the world with LOW paid pilots flying airbuses that they pull out of the garbage and paint.
Brown and Purple will be overrun by a co with the 3500hr 75K per year regional transplants flying the bus in 5-7yrs

Look at the picture of the pilots in the article above, they have a sign of ABX, Atlas & Southern...but the ATI name is nowhere to be found.
Why would that be?????

Dont believe Amazon is all that serious on the Air side. The “hub” hasnt broke ground. No more growth. It was a mere threat to the big boys as a negotiating tactic. Look at the results: ups and fedex guys on here worried of the future.
It worked
