http://sunelec.com/ it is my understanding that you can pick up the panels, etc., in either Miami or Phoenix and save shipping costs. I assumed they also shipped from Phoenix, but I could be wrong on that.
They seem to have good prices on name-brand panels, but I don't know what kind of hit the shipping would be. You would need to call.
I recently bought a big blue water container (for boondocking use) and shipping varied from $60-something dollars, which was more than the cost of the container, to $6. I bought the one with $6 shipping. That brought across the country, from Utah to WV. Not bad, and the price of the item was not artificially inflated compared to other sources.
It pays to shop around. I must have contacted at least a dozen companies selling these water jugs before I found one with very reasonable shipping.
