Ranting about shipping costs!!!

Oh jeez, I got tagged for 900$ for fed ex freight. Fender, rad, bumper for valiant. They charged me 150$ for home delivery... but I had to pick it up... Needless to say we are still in negotiations... REFUSED to give me a quote preemptively. I would have driven Buffalo to SC for that. Should have been a red flag. “Don’t worry, we’ll send you an invoice.” But as far as small stuff goes, it probably has something to do with amazon/ebay/etsy/etc getting massive shipping discounts. Gotta make up for it I suppose. The radio was spouting retail stores such as Kohls taking amazon returns. Go online, fill out, go to brick and mortar kohls or whatever, they fill a truck, send back to wherever. Probably all goes on pallets and gets auctioned and written off as loss
