Yet China can ship for free:

That's 12 cents worth of wire, sold for $4, and shipping is free
compliments of the Chinese government subsidies. It is said that no
shipping container ever leaves there with any airspace in it, and I
believe it.

Who offers that wire for 12 cents?


I'm sure I've seen it for a penny (+s/h) on ebay, but it was more an
observation of so much Chinese pricing than a standard for that
particular wire. I paid $2.90 delivered for 2x 3M after being outbid
on a dozen penny auctions. g
