$36.00 shipping from hobby king?

I was looking for budget motor esc so I thought I would try, but after shipping,its like I'm not saving any money over buying better stuff. What gives?

Is that the cheapest shipping method or ems? I'm in the UK but find it cheaper to ship things from HK rather than Germany! Weird. The only thing is waiting 2 weeks for it to arrive.

You are aware that China is on the other side of the planet? Pretty cheap considering the distance.

I am fully aware. What boggles me is, why buy cheap stuff when the good stuff is the same price...
