Hey everyone,
So here's the issue:
TLDR: Shipping here from Pine64 is way too expensive, even for small items.
I put in an order for the USB-C pine phone adapter. They told me they wanted more money, on top of the $30 shipping fee initially charged.
I paid for the item and the shipping. I got an email from them asking for an additional $35 for a remote delivery fee.
My town is an hour out of a major city up here in Canada. By Canadian standards, I'm not remote.
I've decided to cancel my order and take my money elsewhere.
The adapter is normally around $27. With shipping and the remote fee, it was going to total to around $100.
I'm not spending that on a $30 adapter, no matter how good it may be.
I'm going to keep looking for other companies to do business with.
Regards
Cptantiles
