What's all this about "Knocked-Down" shipping and saving $15 to $35 per post???

We have all been feeling the effects of the rising price of fuel. Imagine what it's like for shipping companies! All of the standard couriers (UPS, FedEx, DHL) have switched their pricing structures and charge based on dimensional weight. Our assembled posts ship in big boxes so instead of being charged for their actual 30 lb. weight, they now go out at 49 lbs. per post! Ouch! It looks like we'll just have to pay more for shipping. WRONG!

The design of our posts allows us to ship them Knocked-Down, two posts per box. Instead of shipping one post at 49 lbs., we can now ship two posts at 53 lbs. This results in saving an average of 60% per post. On top of that, the Knocked-Down box eliminates the double box charges; so, instead of paying $13 for two box charges, you pay nothing. The savings are immense! On top of saving money, you're also helping us save the environment by using less packaging. Let's take a look at several shipping examples* and see how much you can save:

Example 1: Shipping 2 posts to the Northeast (UPS Zone 2).
Assembled posts would cost about $50 for UPS charges and double box charges.
Knocked-Down posts would cost about $20.
You save a total of $30, or 60%!

Example 2: Shipping 2 posts to the middle of the U.S (UPS Zone 5).
Assembled posts would cost about $75.
Knocked-Down posts would cost about $30.
You save a total of $45, or 60%!

Example 3: Shipping 2 posts to the West Coast (UPS Zone 8).
Assembled posts would cost about $125.
Knocked-Down Posts would cost about $55.
You save a total of $70, or 56%

* The sample rates are based on published UPS rates as of Dec. 1, 2008 for Ground shipments and are estimates only. Zones are based on shipping from 11788.

So, what's the catch?
•	Posts must be ordered in multiples of two. You cannot mix assembled and Knocked-Down posts on the same order.
•	You have to "assemble" the post. Don't sweat this one though, if you can screw in a light bulb, you can "assemble" this post. You put the baseweight on the floor and simply hand screw the post into the baseweight. There is no ackward balancing act where you have to hold the heaviest part of the post in the air while tightening some hardware. There are no "special" tools to lose; in fact, you don't need any tools. Other posts on the market may end up being crooked or wobbly when they loosen over time, ours will remain straight.
•	You can only ship the standard 18 lb. baseweight Knocked-Down (with or without wheels.)

Let's review the benefits...
•	You use less packaging, which is better for the environment.
•	You can replace the baseweight cover,which generally shows the most wear.
•	You can reuse the box as a space saving storage container when posts are not being used.
•	Oh yeah, you save a ton of money on freight and box charges!

Now, for some Search Engine mumbo jumbo...
