Shipping

[SameGuy]

The problem is....not many of us need to spend $150.00. Most of us aren't asking for free shipping, what we want is not to get gouged for shipping. If you read through the entire thread, there are many examples, of the same items, where company "D" charges almost half of what AG charges.

Again, it isn't free shipping, it is fair shipping.

Fair to you. I'm sure TPTB have a good idea of what is fair to the company, considering all the extra services they provide. Nobody says you MUST shop here, if you don't like it, shop elsewhere. Or is Capitalism and a Free Market Economy foreign to you? It just seems very uncouth to whine about how a company chooses to operate in the free forum they provide for your benefit.

Thank you for the feedback, Meghan!

I appreciate and we hear loudly all of your comments, we do offer free shipping for forum members over $150, a few of our sister sites currently offer as low as over $50. We try to run specials often so you can stock up with great savings, and along the way offering great customer service, lots of education and a great selection not to mention we Price Match!
But we are always looking to improve!

Hopefully this thread can end now! *fingers crossed*

Given the subject of shipping ran 10 pages as of when I posted this it looks like it would be a good place to start

Why should this be considered "special"?


Like I mentioned early on in this thread:

This seems to be a sore subject.

For some...Yes, it does.
Always has been: at least since 2006.

Plenty of examples; here's just one:

AG and gas has gone way up!!!

Megan-

Not picking on you, but this is the same answer I got 3-4 years ago when i first started ordering from this site. Are you guys considering USPS shipping yet? What's holding you back? I'm just trying to understand why you wouldnt just offer USPS like everyone is wishing for... there must be a reason.

Could it be acceptance? USPS does not require a signature.

Why do they need to explain their business model and internal workings to you?

Neither does UPS.

They don't. Same way no one has to order from them. Some suggestions have been put forth (USPS and membership), and intentionally ignored. It would seem the shipping profits are an integral part of their business model.

Exactly. AG has commented on this, and this isn't the first time this has been discussed. If people can't accept it, you have other options. At this point, seeing the posts keep coming is like beating a dead horse and come across as whining.
