I also have a really hard time paying those crazy shipping costs, but I
have to admit that the Demco "Smith System Buffalo" brand of book carts are
amazing and last forever. I recently got rid of some older, flimsier carts
we had in our library and have been replacing them with these. We put them
through their paces hauling heavy textbooks, etc., and they work
wonderfully. A lot of money to spend up front (especially for shipping) but
that's the route I'd go. Watch Demco for sales - they do put book trucks on
sale occasionally.
