In order to meet shipping requirements we need to adjust the frame length from 48” to 47 1/2”.
As many of you know that have received kits from us we tend to add extra protection foam and packing to the kit / package to insure that everything arrives without issue. The problem is this causes the ends of the box to expand out and the scanning equipment changes the length from 48” to 49” which doesn’t sound like much but that 1” multiplies the price by about 3x. I have included some example pics of a couple scenarios.
A 48” x 8” x 8” 16 lb. package going from Utah to Minnesota is $32.85. That same weight in a 49” x 8” x 8” is $101.26 plus fees which makes shipping them unacceptable.
We want to continue to produce the larger kit version and the best solution is to cut it down by 1/2” that will allow room for shipping protection and not have oversized shipping conditions when the package is scanned.
Sorry for the long post but I just wanted to explain the reason for the product changes.
