I needed to purchase the following items:
(2) Raybestos 980631fzn
(2) Raybestos 980636fzn
Akebono ACT1324a
Akebono ACT1325a
If all 4 items were purchased together in a single order, the shipping charges total $55.97. The rotors would ship from one warehouse ($47.98) and the pads would ship from a different warehouse ($7.99).
However, I tested multiple order configurations and found a way to reduce shipping costs. If I split the order in the following manner:
Order 1:
(2) Raybestos 980636FZN
Shipping: $26.99
Order 2:
(2) Raybestos 980631FZN
Akebono ACT1324a
Akebono ACT1325a
Shipping: $14.99
I can save $14 on shipping ($41.98 vs $55.97).
Point is, Rockauto’s shipping calculator is flawed.
