Maybe there is a RCC vendor that offers it though? If so I would buy from them. Maybe someone that has been here longer can tell us

Same Stuff Professional Plastic Welder with Touch-N-Flow Applicator

If you are going to be doing a lot of builds you can buy a couple of big sheets of styrene at any industrial plastic shop. I got a 4x8 sheet of 1.5mm (.06) for $40, cut it into strips, and sold what I didn't need.

You guys rock....RPP order placed!!
Thanks!!

EDIT- I'm not ordering anything from RPP. Their shipping options blow.........I want stuff Parcel-Post. The cheapest shipping method they offer is Priorty, $15.35 for $30.00 dollars worth of stuff. They just lost my business.

Shipping is high these days. And when you dont offer a cheaper way you will lose orders. I for one do the same thing. I cant stand paying high shipping costs from anywhere. Especially when its going west to east coast.

Yep............I've ordered stuff from them before and had the option for P-Post, not sure what changed. Thier loss I guess.........I shipped a 7 # complete car to Wa. for less than what they want for, what, less than a 1# of stuff....oh well.

Well check above your post. You got a response and hopefully Corey can do something for ya. I just dont see why they dont offer parcel post. Not just RPP but all the companies. With the USPS cutting the cheapest methods & increasing rates that occur yearly one would think it would be logical. Who really wants to pay high costs in top method of shipping? The costs are sky rocketing enough on the items themselves. Plus everything else in life skyrocketing. I could go on about this but will refrain as this is a hobby site not a political site. LOL! But prices are effecting everything you do and with how much stuff is so rapidly increasing one just cant help to say this.
Good luck hopefully RPP will ship ya it parcel post.

Corey thanks for the response. I'm not trying to be a cheap-skate but I ,as others, would like the ability to go Parcel-Post. Tried again tonight-still shows Fed-Ex and Priority as my cheapest route. $15.84 for right at a $30.00 order.

not sure what problems you had , but i only order from RPP because there shipping is the cheapest. there are other places i wont mention that just stick it to you no matter what you order. give RPP another chance in my opinion there the best out there.
good luck
