MonoPrice Shipping

This may have been written elsewhere but I really didn't feel like searching too hard and didn't see it with a quick search of my title.

I just bought 2 10ft HDMI cables from monoprice. Not a big deal, but I noticed that if I increased the number of cables and then went back down in number, the shipping cost was more expensive. This also occurred if I selected to "Add 2" to my cart from the originial product page. If I just choose to "Add 1" and then added a second when I got there, my shipping remained the same. Not a big deal, but still saved a few bucks. I don't know if this might also affect bigger and more expensive purchases. Just thought I would mention it. Also, it only worked if I used Google's new "Chrome" browser. It did not work with IE. Funny and perhaps worthless to most, but I like saving a buck.

You do realize that the Google Chrome browser has a keylogger built in it and records every place you go and everything you do while using it. Not a good thing for privacy.

Well thanks for the info. It's too bad; I really like the Chrome Browser: simple, convenient, and real quick. I'm not the most paranoid person, but after reading a couple of articles and finding that you were absolutely correct (Google doesnt really even deny it), I decided to change all of the passwords that I had used while on it and I uninstalled the program. Not worth the obvious possibility of snoopers.

My feelings as well.
