Possibly.Is it the case that the absurd costs for a consumer to ship anything to Hawaii actually favor consolidated commercial shipments feeding old-fashioned local distribution?
I found an online retailer that had 99 old Estes F26 motors in stock at a discounted price.
Comes to find out that they could only be shipped via FedEx and there is only FedEx Air to Hawaii, no ground shipment via boat. I asked why not ship with USPS Parcel Select and he said that they could not do that legally.
Even though Estes has sent me their F15 bulk pack via USPS Parcel Select (I think it's called Ground Advantage now).
So I wound up passing.
