JoeCamaro 11 Posted June 25, 2008 Thanx for the info nonabelle. I was going to buy a set for myself, but it wont tell me the shipping costs. It says they will send it and then charge me for the cost of it and will notify me. I can not accept that, what if they charge a lot for it? I need to know before I buy.
