Cleaning rod shipping

just got 48" bore tech from brownells,well actually sinclairs about a month ago with free shipping code.I haven't tried to ship one on my own though but I would think post office could beat $45. Ive used my local PO alot for different things and have had good luck out of them, knock on wood :rolleyes:
 
Where in the H--- did you order from Dusty ? What Rod ? Never in my life paid anything like that for shipping on rods I have bought, from places like Midway, Midsouth or Amazon.

Heres a screenshot of my cart at boretech. Montana, brownells, midway, etc were all similarAB9C9ECD-3391-452B-9C43-C758E8FE8AA6.png
 
Ive got a ton of rods but the main thing i was wanting was a rod case from boretech and was going to order a friend a couple rods he needs while i was at it
 
I just purchased a new rod from Optics Planet on eBay and the shipping was free. That same rod directly from Dewey was going to be like $40 for shipping.
 
2019 UPS placed an additional surcharge on packages exceeding a certain length. This necessarily including such items as cleaning rods, fishing poles and rifle cases. Use the 'free shipping' option when available although that sometimes involves the Post office 'Sure Post' which allows for 7-10 days shipping by mule train.:eek::( Amazon is the one exception except they are cutting back on the number of items which meet the Prime free shipping offer.

As to the dilemma on rod cases, I will continue to build them out of PVC pipe and caps which screw on and off and offer much more protection.
