Unfortunately it's not all based just on weight. They also go by measurements and the price goes up as soon as it crosses the border. A while back I ordered some parts from one of our sponsors. They were using a stand USPS box to ship and it was something like $12.95 or something like that in the US. Shipped to me was about $25. It's stupid. And then if it's shipped UPS, they kill us with the brokerage fees. I received a $300 package a few weeks ago and I just got a $60 bill in the mail for the brokerage fees.
