Anybody had experience with USPS Priority with 3balls? ordering a Cobra L5V wrench and don't wanna pay $30 shipping on Fedex for a $10 item.
If it means i have to wait about 2 weeks it's fine, anything longer though and i'll prob just go with Fedex.
I was gonna order something else and combine shipping but i don't need anything, i'm actually happy with all my gear

3Balls does USPS shipping???
Awesome, will have to keep that in mind, I'm sure its just for smaller stuff though, which kinda sucks, but anyway.
USPS Priority is usually 6-10 working days, but in my experience is usually 4-6 days working days. And I've ordered a LOT of stuff through USPS. I'm sure that you would not have any hassle with them what-so-ever and you should definitely have it in a fortnight from order date.Ping G430 MAX 9° - Tour Alta CB Stiff

USPS Priority shipping has been pretty good for me. Generally less than a week.

See if you can get in on goonie's bulk order and ask if he's willing to ship it on to you...

Couldn't you take it to hardware house and ask them for a torque wrench or whatever it is ?

For suppliers who get preferred rates with Fed Ex and UPS its slightly cheaper. For everyone else its way cheaper.

I've asked around about a local hardware store $5 option but i can't find an answer, never seen a screw that looks like it either.
All good, used there buy 2 hats and get 1 free deal, won't need hats for a while.Cobra L5V 10.5*
