The seller does ship via US post office for troops at APO addresses so my request was not impossible. I suppose he was greedily looking at the ($41-$16.29) = $24.71 profit he could make by shipping by UPS. On top of that he just didn't give a damn if by doing so it cost me (his client) the $24.71 that he snared plus an extra ($33.62-$4.30) = $29.32 to UPS for brokerage. The seller's got a good business going with almost 41000 sales and not to many complaints so I never dreamed he would actually do what he did. We live and learn. I guess after dealing with soldiers all my life (37 years) I have a thing or two to learn about business people. This is why I go to HRO and pay a few pennies more. That sounds good if you happen to know what HRO is. (O: |
