Ready to give up on shipping parts (or anything)...

It's all the two-dollar crap with free shipping from China, and USPS propping up Amazon delivery times, that's causing the bleeding.

Those free boxes aren't much compared to a billion packages from China that nobody is paying shipping on except the usps.

Yeah but them boxes cost SOMETHING to make and I ain't the only one they're sendin free boxes to. To send out free case packs of boxes just to depend on the customer "might" use them is pretty bad planning.
