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 is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance. -Thomas Sowell Grady-White Gulfstream, out of Oak Island, NC.

With over 4000 stores in the US and being the worlds largest retailer, they must be doing something right. -- Ziggy® |
