Why is it that Autogeek.net has higher shipping cost

As the title says. I'm looking to buy the UDM and I nonticed the shipping cost is a lot more on the autogeek site vs one of the sister sites (pinnaclewax.com). The item is being shipped to Chicago and autogeek charges $16.99 for shipping whereas pinnacle is giving free shipping. I then saw the coupon for the free gift. I'm just wondering would it be worth it for me to pay the extra 16.99 and get the free gift or should I just buy with the free shipping through pinnacle.

Pinnacle's site show to be 7.95 shipping... not free? And any discounts that you would have for free shipping or anything like that doesnt apply to polishers (I think).

Unless there is a mistake on the system, I added the UDM with my address on the checkout page and it's showing free shipping.

You are absolutely right. I just put one in my cart and went through checkout and sure enough. 129 bucks free shipping. I suppose maybe its a mistake on their part? I dunno

Once you add in all the incenatives,CS,1-800 On line help,AGO,no hassle returns,on line access to sponsored vendors and their products,multiple discounts,free gifts etc ...

IMHO...looking at the big picture justifys the cost

Man I'll be more then happy to simply pay $16.99 hahahaha. I've noticed that AG has the cheapest shipping cost in the US, well at least from what I have seen and I've placed quite a few orders from the US.

I'd be interested to hear what an AG rep has to say.

each site has different sales and promo's , thats why I always suggest checking each site before purchase and running thru each of the promotions. Pinnacle, Wolfgang, and Diamonite are internal products made by PBMA and thus we can discount additional items on site from time to time as we may hope to see additional purchases of our merchandise.

Ever wonder why Best Buy sells dvds below cost, it gets you in the store and hopes you'll pick up something else.
