Dan,
I have been using the Big Brown Hobby truck for 20+ years for LBCs and RC
airplanes. The minimum shipping and handling fee is industry standard
procedure. I don't think TRF is doing anything out of the ordinary.
I always maintain a list of parts I need has the need arises and wait to
order more things in each order to spread out the S&H
