actually i can't believe that all this is about $1.21 --------- again i want to point out that many of the selections available you just can't get from the big companys ----- i have many times (before i found Mudcat)spent monthes looking for certain records/cass/cd's -many times without sucess --- AGAIN i want to point out that Dicks' overhead (especially since it's a recent aquisition for him)is a factor in his pricing -- if he chooses to add it in with the shipping price WHAT'S the problem -- there is Nothing devious about it ---- If you don't like the overall price DON'T BUY IT ----- PBS charges a lot more for easily available CD's -- that can be gotten for less -- and yet many people (including myself) buy from them -- are we all stupid? or have we decided that we want to pay for something more than just the item involved -- and if that means $1.21 so be it ---i pay a lot more than that elsewhere
