Here it is again. What is it about the states of Alaska and Hawaii
that confuses people.

Both are U.S. States. They use American money. UPS, USPS, and
Fed Ex go there. There are no customs statements to fill out.

USPS charges the same to ship there as, say, California or Nevada.

Anything that will go wrong with a deal to Alaska or Hawaii could
also go wrong with Michigan or Louisiana.

There is no difference between Alaska, Hawaii, and New Mexico or
Maine.

Will someone please explain this 48 state stuff?

What's the story?

People must not have heard you joined the union yet. Hehehehe.

Unless something has changed dramatically, the shipping for packages isn't
the same at all. The last time I shipped something to Hi many years back (An
old Yaesu 560) I was shocked by the amount that it cost to ship. And UPS
ain't no bargain to begin with!!

I don't know about UPS and Hawaii but USPS and Puerto Rico follow the
same rate chart as the mainland. Those of us who live outside the '48'
tend to be aware of the costs and if we're the ones paying I don't see
why there should be a limitation by the seller.

Yes? Buyer pays shipping.

Yes, UPS can be expensive when you use their retail stores or
affiliates but one secret is that there are TWO UPS rates. You can
get a lower rate by shopping around or opening your own account.

USPS charges the same once you hit the max.

But, Buyer pays shipping.

I'm guessing that the aging ham population thinks that Alaska and
Hawaii are still Territories.

Well, I've had more trouble doing deals with Florida.

It's a boat, of course.

Anyone who is both a ham, and a sailer, will assure you that all that
salt water outside the boat makes a _great_ ground!

Ok, to make it simple, neither UPS or Fedex do ground shipments to Hawaii,
Air only...

I still want to see that truck..
