I got a Harriet Carter catalog a few days ago and saw a couple of things
that looked to be worth ordering. After I calculated the add-ons to the
prices - shipping, handling and processing, state sales tax and a $1.50
service charge it was half the cost of the articles I wanted. Seems a bit
greedy to me. I decided to buy the stuff elsewhere.

It's rare that I order from catalogs. The shipping charges are outrageous

and _usually_ I can find the same product locally, on eBay, or at Amazon.
A $3.99 object with a $5.99 shipping charge does not make me rush to add
that item to my cart.
