Outlook good.



Good 1/0 gauge at less than $2/foot is too good to pass on right now.

If I had my senses a few months back I would have bought 30 cases of those onkyo tweeters instead of only 10. As predicted they are selling well.

Just ran across this and thought it'd be appropriate for the thread.

Domenico, flat rate shipping on a spool is $13.95.....USPS Priority. If your budget is tight I can price out FedEx Ground for you and maybe save a few bucks.

Daenzer since you're so close, FedEx would be faster anyways and would be cheaper. Shipping would probably be around $8-10 via Ground if you wanna save a few bucks. So about $100 or less for a spool to your zip. Thus...

The shipped price will be nearly identical to 50ft of Knu's lower end KLMX. On the other hand, Shok wire is heck of a lot more flexible in the cold, has a higher strand count..will carry more current, and will be easier to use. Our new Reference CCA wire is an upgrade over our older 4707 CCA cable.

Since when is Fedex cheaper than USPS? I ship items all the time and would LOVE to know this. I love USPS flat rate. They hate me every time I ship a 12lb package to CA from NJ in a medium flat rate box lol.


UPS wants like twice as much!

I don't touch USPS Parcel Post, only Priority. I work the system with FedEx a bit...I've figured out their discounts here and there. But on certain packages I can get cost down quite a bit as compared to USPS. My volume with them helps as well. We'll have to see how things settle out after the FedEx rate hikes coming up. USPS already raised their rates on Jan 1...time to see how bad the increases hurt from FedEx.

Figured it was a volume rate thing. Per pound, as a consumer you can't beat USPS unless you have an account with UPS or FEDEX. I don't so for me USPS is golden.

Then again even the USPS has raised their rates. Sad but that is the internet at work........


Personally I never ship parcel post. It's cheap but takes forever. Their policy with it is it will get on the next truck going there, so to speak. That is anybody's guess.


With me it's always 2 day priority. I know what it's like to order something and want it ASAP!

Lol don't have it yet. I will have 2 spools each of the Shok 1/0 and 4ga. Expected in a couple weeks.


Last time I picked up a good deal on 1/0 gauge wire I sold it back at slightly higher than cost to peeps here needing smaller than full roll lengths.

I'm thinking $2/foot plus shipping for the 1/0, $1/foot plus shipping for the 4ga. Why buy a full roll if you only need 17' or so right?

No David, we will not be offering it by the foot. We've sold too many in the presale to go that route. I have to have enough spools on hand for all the shops we'll be working with. Sorry guys.
