I ordered my MK 303 American Lapidary Supply (amlap.com)because they were $4 to $12 cheaper than anywhere else on the web.
I selected $8.50 Proiroty instead of $7.68 UPS because 2-3 day priority is better than 5-6 day UPS ground. Also, Priority delivers on Sat.
They switched it to UPS w/o consultation. Not too terrible, I know. Also, they did offer to credit the shipping, which was generous. BUT now I don't get to use the saw this weekend. So, I am a bit grumpy about that.

it was a 10" blade for $64. I ended up getting a 10" premium felker blade for $68 at Lowes because I couldn't wait. Now I got two.
Well three, f you count the old one. It can't slab, but it is OK for hand feeding a chunk of rough to just cut it in two.

Daniel - Did you take the credit? I wonder why they switched on you.

10 inch blade was probably too big for the Priority packaging? ?

10 inch blade was probably too big for the Priority packaging? ? It would fit easy in the large flat flat-rate box. or one of the fiberglass envelopes. The blad was dropshipped, and I just don't think the told the dropshipper how to do it. They did give my the $8.50 credit. So can't complain too much.
