True. Good advice! It's what I do when I order large orders from overseas
(non US) suppliers and it saves a lot of hassle.
However I do not consider any order from Amazon (a US supplier selling and
shipping to a US address) that is under 1000 USD to be "large", and
therefore think that they have some possible areas for improvement. While it
IS true that Amazon is using Mercator software, perhaps they're not using it
as effectively as they could. :-)
