Those awful airpocket things.  The rest of mine shipped and i didn't get
charged any more than the original $20 shipping... though, i wonder if
each charge was charged to my card separately, I don't really care, just
curious is all.  For those who are interested, I should have a complete
inventory of the set up tommorrow.
