I remember overweight bags being charged 3X the fee to certain destinations and sometimes that fee was 110-150 usd. So, for example you had an overweight bag that was also an extra piece to lets say MNL...the charge was 150x3 (450usd) for overweight and 150 for an extra piece. And the kicker, MNL excess piece bags went to NRT and were hauled down 2-3 times a week on a freighter. So you didn't even get it when you arrived in MNL after paying at least 150 bucks, maybe more. This is an extreme example but none the less, shows the audacity(sp?) of these thugs.
