I figured I'd post this here as it seems the best place for it.
I feel shipping policies should be changed more to the buyers choice.
We as the consumer are forced to accept whatever a company has a "contract" to ship with.
Basically Fedex or UPS. Especially in the critically important area of overnight shipping.
As far as I'm concerned USPS isn't a player with this.
We as the consumer are paying for shipping after all. It's our money and we don't have a choice who we want something shipped with.
And that may result in our missing out on certain deals if we can't rely on a certain shipper in our area.
In my area UPS is a major screw up. FedEx does a much better job.
In your area it may be the opposite.
I know the vendors aren't going to like this idea because of the contract issues, but that system is archaic and needs to change.
We spend a ton of money in this hobby on shipping and we need a choice that suits us, not the company.
We have a voice! Let's let it be heard. This can be changed!
