I have purchased goods via mail order for many many years. The main lesson learned is that it is often better to buy more, rather than less to make the shipment worthwhile. I am sure we have all experienced the $10 part that ended up as $50.
For this very reason I usually stay away from couriers like UPS. I got burned that way as my $10 part had shipping, brokerage fees and GST added to it. Places like UPS often have a minimum on brokerage fees, in this case it was around $20!!! Understandably, ordering bulk does not work with one off purchases.
