Wow, a ten dollar shipping fee to get a package to some God forsaken
desert in God knows where.. Oooooo, never seen that before... NOT!
Man, we should put a target on one of their kids homes.... Yeah, that's
how we get our way!
Let's read this again, for content:
On a $120 purchase, Walmart.com charged $10.35 to ship to an APO
address, compared with $2.10 to a stateside address. For most items,
Amazon.com charged the same to ship to an APO address as a stateside
address. And Target offered shipping on a $120 purchase to an APO
address for less than to a stateside address.
$10.00 or $.10 why would you charge people more, just because they
have an APO address?Amazon didn't do it. Target didn't do it. In fact,
I'm not sure that you'd find anybody else doing it. It doesn't cost
any more to ship to an APO than any other address, why would you
charge more? Gouging.... and gouging folks on a fixed income that are
likely a serrated family... already under stress....
It's absolutely gouging. So do something about it.
