No.  ~$30 per freight item (boxes, cases, etc).  Pallets and other items
requiring a forklift may be more expensive.  This cost is relatively
cheap.  I once paid $150 in fees ($75 carry in, $75 carry out) in Las
Vegas for a generic $179 VGA monitor bought out of necessity at the
local CompUSA.  At least I got to ride on the electric cart that hauled
it back to the booth. ;)
