USRP $109 shipping to Aus

[charmingajs007]

Went to buy a usrp from the ettus site this week and was shocked at the price for shipping. When i asked why so much they said due to the weight. I could understand $50 but not $109! I haven't purchased many things from the net so does that seem right?

Was it express shipping ?

No that was standard shipping. After talking to ettus i can kinda understand the price now with a weight of 5 pound and size36cm x 23cm x 11cm.
