Rip-off Shipping charge

I waited several weeks for the Sage store to restock a remote since my extender's remote stopped working - rather it only works if i hold it a foot from the receiver. It is not the battery.

Anyway, I was thrilled to see that they are back in stock in the store. Buit when I went to checkout, the cheapest shipping charge was as much as the remote. Ridiculous! Come on Sage. That is absured. Needless to say I won't be buying one.

I've got a HD200 and ended up using a Hauppauge 45-button remote with it - works fine. You might be able to find one on ebay or something.

or go with a universal remote. I find that my harmony is vastly more comfortable to use and does alot more. It's pricey though...
