Well most of the sites and retailers on ebay jack up shipping costs to Hawaii. Just cause they hear Hawaii they up the actual shipping price by 300%.

I just took a guestimate on how big a exhaust system would be.

I am not supporting ship to Hawaii, but i think it can save some money...

48in x 18in x 12in
@ 30 lbs

$71.82

beat that Fedex

You have a good point on the savings offered by shiptohawaii. I guess I am just lazy and am willing to pay a few extra dollars for the convenience. I like having a Fedex tracking number and really like having items especially larges ones delivered to my home or work. My only question is since most companies will only ship items to the cc billing address how do you get them to ship it to shiptohawaii?

But they do handle way better! Sorry about that dude, don't know who told you that, but I'll backhand them for you. As for expensive prices, that's the bummer of doing business in Hawaii, and a huge issue with retailers competing with internet businesses in general. Wish we could give the same prices as the internet guys, but we wouldn't last long.
