Agreed on that.
It's getting to be like the cr*p they sell on TV - where the shipping is about the same as the advertised price (in best case scenario). Sometimes, the item is actually sold as "free [you just pay the P&H - and of course, they never mention the P&H on air]". Or another version of it is "Buy one, get the second free [you just pay the P&H on the second one]". In all of these cases, the P&H is about what you'd expect to pay in toto anyway.
Anyway, it is ridiculous to pay 38$ shipping on a $49 item, unless you live in Timbaktu or something. I can't believe those are the prices for shipping to the good old US of A.

Good luck with that July/August date. And the maturation!
