Why don't you read the whole thing? Why do people nowadays too lazy to read?
This is how it calculates:
(Highest Applicable Per-Shipment Cost) + (Number of Items x Per-Item Cost) = Total Shipping Fee

Your point is valid...to me it is simple...junk in junk out.

I'm no expert but the press process has to be good and most importantly the source used has to be good. Th source makes all the difference.

I have a few imported CD's and exactly the same Malaysian pressed cd's. I can proof that the imported once (at least the ones i have) are better. You can hear more details etc...

May be some one else can further explain...

I heard from a Hifi shop consultant that Malaysian pressed cd are lower quality pressed cd, which for example the Malaysian recording company bought a master copy of "ABC" album from US but lower grade one cos it's cheaper and they sell us RM50 and gained lots of profit from this..

The different between International service and local service,
I went to a local cd shop to order a cd but after 1 month still no news from the boss, called the boss cos tired of waiting for his call and he said they have ordered but due to supplier OOS they have to wait till it's available!

Then i tried the Amazon.com and it took me less than a week to receive the cd with a cheaper price and faster service..

so from now onwards, I am not going to support any local cd shops anymore..well i don't think they care anyway of losing a small customer like me .. biggrin.gif
