Back in our early days, we used to spend $1,000+ per season on rush shipping for things we need. Now, we've become a little wiser and aren't paying for priority shipping ever. We just try and order in advance and wait the extra day or two. Actually, though, it's not that bad. IIRC, we can get orders from Andymark in 3-4 days in McMaster orders the next day, all without paying for express shipping. It's saved us a
ton of money in the life of our team.
And, I think it's probably doable to get one good robot out of $1,500, if you spend your money wisely and think it through.
