D-104 elements

[Edwin J Forwood]

I'm not really complaining about the shipping costs,  I just wanted to
point out everyone seems to forget that the low cost selling price of an
item is not often the total cost of acquiring it.  The total cost of an
item is everything that it costs to get it in your hands.
