I run trains!

| I ended up cancelling this order. Apparently HK's website checkout is too stupid to figure tax into the equation. Thus you get a total and e-mail confirmation that says "most" orders will be charged tax, but without any indication as to which orders those are or what the tax will be if they are to be charged. So in my case it came out to be about $5 on top of the $12 shipping (seems like a lot). Wasn't happy to learn this 3 days after I placed the order.
Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.
Complacency sucks… |

Yeah, their e-commerce site is pretty basic. I got my barrel today from FedEx. There was no sales tax in shipping it to Tennessee. Even with $11.95 shipping, it was a good enough deal for me.
