Uh, excuse me, but I ship via UPS all the time--thousands of catalogs per 
month--and there is no way it would cost the same to ship something to 
California as it does to New Hampshire.  The charges are figured by weight 
and by zone.  To California would be a few dollars more than to New 
Hampshire.  Where did you get your information, just out of curiosity.
