Default aem cai weight with filter?

Hey guys

I'm really interested in this intake a luder has for sale near me, and i want it shipped to my house. He says that it'll cost 20 bucks to ship it to my house, and i only live 60 miles away. This seems a little wierd to me, as my dad orders piano parts that are obviously heavier, from places like michigan to my house in cali, and arent nearly as expensive. Is this guy tryin to rip me off? Or is this just truthful, but outrageous, price? How much does the piping and filter weight together? Thanks in advance.

Find out for yourself. If he has to buy the box to ship it plus other packaging supplies it can easily be $20 bucks. If he is making money off of it, it couldn't be more then $5 or so bucks... so if you're getting a good deal suck it up and just buy it from him. If you keep trying to lowball the guy he will become pissed off and eventually sell it to someone else for the same price.

its not so much the weight but also the size of the box a big bulky box will raise the price quickly
