Some outlets I have seen expect you to spend at least $400-500 to get the "free shipping". And in many cases, their regular shipping, WITHIN THE US, is $15-20 for one small $20 pocketknife--so usually I pass. $100-$150; sure. A bit much for my standards, but a typical order (for most people, not often me) from some of the outlets I do business with is probably that much. But that's 4000 EURO; and that is only within France. Yikes!
