But one thing I do hate about some online vendors is that you can't
find
out the shipping and handling charges until you've entered you name,
address, phone number and card number.

Then screw 'em. I buy lots of supplies and tools online. If they
require that for a simple shipping quote, then something is not right.
If they have a phone number, I will call that if it is toll free; if I
have to pay for the call, forget it.

If I have to give them personal, monetary information just to find out
the final cost I always move to the next vendor.
