Now I'm confused. How the heck can they charge like that??? I
thought it was some international scam tack on fees, but this makes no
sense at all.

Good luck Michelle.

Stu,
I was merely stating my facts in dealing with Century Flight Systems.
I do not need to "hear" you tell me again. You apparently like to hear
your self "talk"

So this is news? Better to go with someone else. Century couldn't
give a **** about you.

Well I talked to all involved today.
Century Admits no fault. No great surprise.
I am going after Fedex for the Excess shipping charges.
So a $75 repair turns into a $300 charge to me. About $240 will be
shipping charges!!!!!

So I told the People I talked to at Century that I have lost confidence
in their company and am selling the unit and installing a EHSI from
someone else. They did not seem to be to broken up about it.

I live in Virginia, the shipping is $80*3. To me and back and then to me
again.
Century only ships 2nd day air.
It will be coming UPS this time.
