Re: Zeroscillator Price Update

2006-02-11 by Carlos

hey Cynthia(or someone else taht knows) I went to put my preorder for
the .com format and is chargin me 35$ for shipping, I checked the
shipping prices on the site and it doesnt match, (says 20 for orders
between 600-800$) is this a mistake or an update on shipping charges
not on the site?

thanks for beign understanding, now I am ready to order :)
