Andy, by "care" I meant chips that packed well and securely, which Mike's always are. Last week I received three chips from Canada in a non-auction transaction that were simply dumped loose in the envelope. Luckily, they arrived in good shape.

As for the "money-hungry ripoff artist" comment - yes, those were my words. Some comments can be intrepreted different ways by different people, but to me, it certainly has been implied by some tonight and in other discussions on this subject that anything above the actual shipping cost amounts to simple greed on the part of the seller. Some people are willing to pay a few cents more for good packaging and fast shipping. Some aren't.

That being said, I still am amazed that you will ship the Chip Rack for free. That sucker is getting heavier every year.
