Shipping Cost
I was just wondering if any member has lost sales due to the cost of shipping ? I have had buyers respond in shock to the cost of shipping an item to their location . The gas & diesel prices have gotten out of hand and have changed what we can ship and if a sale can be completed or not . U.P.S. & Fed X have gotten too expensive due to all the surcharges they add. I try to use Grey Hound bus as much as possible but it too is getting expensive . Would enjoy hearing from other R.C.U. members as to how they are coping with the shipping expense and if you have any tips . Buyers have to remember that the price for boxes , packing p-nuts , bubble wrap & tape have gone up in price as well and a 60 inch tall box can add up in just the packing cost before the shipping . I hear that oil has gone down a little , lets hope it keeps going down a lot more & that the carriers will adjust their prices soon . Lookingh for your two cents ..
