shipping aluminum sheet

[bransom]

Any time I order something from AC Spruce I gasp a little when I see the
shipping costs -- which only show up when the order arrives. I was about
to order two pieces last night, a 2x4 foot piece of 032 and another same
size of 020. Material cost was about $17 each piece but they indicate an
"oversize" charge. I called them this morning to see how damaging that
might be and she said more than the cost of the materials (e.g. more than
$35).

I hadn't thought 2x4 foot sheet should make oversize status. Anyone know
of an easier way for getting this sort of thing in N. California?
