I don't know how many times I've paid for shipping and I could have shipped the item in the same manner for way less than the company does and they get big discounts on volume shipping.

Yet you don't see many complaints but when an individual on Eboy does it folks are up in arms.
I guess I am a rare nut job then! I also look at online retailers and if they charge way over for shipping that I know is a padding feature I simply do not buy. I treat them like the Bay crowd. But if they are shipping in a manner and charging for the actual expediency it will arrive then I am happy to do so. This stuff where they charge for handling is a joke to a degree. I don't mind a dollar or two tacked on for your private box or tape to tape it up but when you charge me $5 and above for a 50 cent box and 5 cents worth of tape on the mega roll I can read in to what you are doing and refuse to shop them.
