Living in Alaska and having stuff shipped here can be a royal pain in the butt. I was ordering a part for a water pump once and the young gal said they don't ship to other countries except Mexico. I asked to speak to her supervisor and the supervisor told me the same thing. I said look on the map, we have been a part of the United States for a long time now.
Any way, when I do order from Midway I almost always wait till what I want is on sale and can get free shipping. They would not sell me a VXR scope they had on sale because of the little battery in it and shipping to Alaska, I said take the battery out and use or dispose of it and the nice lady said they can't do that. I e-mailed Larry in disgust and never heard back. I even told them Leupold ships scopes with the batteries and ain't went to jail for it.
All the free shipping of most stuff is state side, Thompson Cigar was always trying to charge me and extra 10 bucks an order because I live in Alaska.
Midway is the least of my shipping woes.
