shipping charges across the board, going up

[Old_Me]

very interesting news item i just saw minutes ago.

the story was about the upcoming holiday season and online buying.

all shippers will jump up their prices, till about near the end of January.

i never gave that any thought in the past.

but for those of us that reload, buy gun, ammo online........

expect higher charges.

not only that

but delays, missing packages, or packages going around the world, then to your house.

and then...we ALL have A-Holes like this....to watch for....

All because of mismanagement we have to pay for higher shipping

Shipping has been up around here, as the companies are charging a fuel surcharge for moving merchandise. Even garbage removal is up in North Texas, according to a friend.

All shipping has been going up - so look for free shipping sales (usually only that day or weekend this year) and if the price is right - grab what you want right then.

Whenever I need to stock up, I use SGAmmo in Oklahoma. They ship free with $200 or more.

more specifically, they will be upping those shipping charges due to the high(er) volumes of packages to be expected, garnering them higher profits, while they still suck at the actual service

berrys ships free if you spend dollars at least 100 of them, which for me is hmmm uber easy

I seen some of that and stay away from them. I rather deal with Buds and them stealing my magazines than those shipping charges.

Someone has to pay people to drive around with the gas prices. I might tell my boss that next time he gives me hell. I get paid to drive around so I’m doing my job correctly.
