As a former small business owner, Auto Service Shop, I believe Messicks is on the right track. They will offer to charge you a price that buying from them is only done when YOU are smoking Weed.
I think it's the 20/80 rule. 20% of your customers account for 80% of your revenue. The other 80% are tire kickers, one time purchasers, looking for a cheap low profit deal, and then go elsewhere for the other cheapest deal. No loyalty and no future sales.
Chasing those customers is a race to the bottom and you're business will suffer/fail.

I hardly equate the fact that I live almost 3 hours from the closest dealer to my smoking weed.

I really appreciate all that Messicks has to offer, but their shipping charges always eliminate them as a competitive choice.
I assume they are aware of that, and choose extra shipping profit over increased parts sales

Sounds like a UPS problem. Messicks isn't making money on the shipping are they?

Normally as a retired trucker I would say if you don't like the delivery charge, go pick it up. But google map says 33 hrs and 2175 miles one way, so $250.00 looks like a heck of a deal.

kinda curious what Coleman would charge to send it to PA, and what Messick's would charge to send it to MO?

Doesn't BEC have a salesman that works the Laughlin area? I know that they used to have someone working the Kingman area. Call Jimmy at Parker and see what he can do to help you out.

Jimmy's who I bought my box blade, Bobcat auger and grapple from, it's always an all day flipping affair driving there due to the distance, yes that's my closest dealer.
