Shipping is a funny thing. Many places eat it on shipping costs to sell you a product at higher mark up. The fact is, shipping anything over a few pounds isn't cheap even going ground from state to state, factor in international and it can get higher. My brother runs a shipping company and I am well aware of the details of it all. Mike charges very fair shipping prices in my opinion. They are pretty realistic to what his costs are but the guy gives great deals on his products and has some of the best service in the industry. He has never failed to answer an email from me and always within a day. Pretty good for someone as busy as he is.

I also have to stick with him on the bashers versus racers part, bashers like myself are the majority by far. What get's me is not that people race but that racers like to try and dictate how the hobby should be just because that's the way they like it, or that they look down on bashers as some sort of sub species of rc'er. It's the same attitude electric guys get from hard core nitro guys. Why can't we all just enjoy the hobby our way?

I will say that valid complaints against Mike are fair, but you won't find a lot of love on here gunning him down.
