Ok. I am slightly confused. One costs 16.25 and the other one costs 17.14. Are you saying both are very expensive? Or one is way more than the other?
It would seem that since they are both right around the same amount of money, except that the cost of the goods on one is higher, commensurate the shipping charges, both seem some what reasonable.
When looking at the total cost: 16 or 17 bucks, for packaging, packing materials, labeling, system entry possibly, payroll, taxes, employee benefits....per hour, probably offers the person doing the job a some what reasonable salary to handle priceless items without incident, even if that one isn't priceless.
200, 300 a day to the person doing the job?
