This one is definitely harder and we've struggled with the logic on it quite a bit. The easy number to display is cost on "home" metal and trust that users will know that it might be different with partners. Otherwise it gets VERY complicated very quickly in terms of figuring out based on a city pair which metal operates on it and which partners are available and which rule set they might fall under. I'm not sure that we're in a position to tackle that logic issue at this point versus grabbing the low-hanging fruit we have right in front of us but, as I noted in my prior post, I also need to talk to the developers and see where we get.
