It's not going to matter if you buy a jack from Sears, Matco Tool, Wal Mart or Harbor Freight, they'll all have been made in China and most likely in the same factory. Sometimes you just don't get any choices.

I've bought a a few things from Harbor Freight and shipping is normally flat rate around $5.00 no matter how big. They also often have free shipping coupons in the catalog.

It could be pertinent to this list as well. Nothing better to drop a transmission from a Vanagon than a good motorcycle jack.
