In one of my orders of the wireless parts, the system was not able to automaticaly determine shipping cost of some of the parts due to its size / weight, and so it need to be calculated manually. Upon checking my order, I was surprised to see the following;

The weight of the equipments are 401.75 lbs, or 182 kilograms! That's very heavy I must say. I know it's gonna cost me a bomb, and so I went to check the shipping cost at UPS's website;

That's 2401.64 USD, or double the cost of the equipments itself… Sum them up, and convert it to our local currency, that's over RM12,000!
On a lighter note, I don't think that's the actual weight, as I assume they just randomly set the weight of each items they're to manually calculate the shipping for. So, for now I'll just wait till they update the order, or be surprised when they charge my card later
