This something I noticed re: the Diesel Vanagon Bosal exhaust
isolators. I'd mentioned this on the DV list.

"..... 2 or more and shipping goes from 1st class @ $2.44 to $15.29 ground."

So AFAIK, not only does the cost change but so does the method. Then
again, I only added things to my cart, get the shipping cost but
didn't actually buy the parts. The actual cost might change once you
actually pay for the item ??

But reading the replies, I can kind of see how shipping would differ
from part to part, but for two of these parts (they're not big), going
from 1 to 2 increases the shipping cost pretty dramatically.  IMO.
