I started using it about a year go. The difference is silly. Nice portal to manage the shipments as well.

I shipped out a pair of Corvette trailering arms to get rebuilt. I paid approx $55 to get them to the vendor. The return trip........$177 from the vendor

Same package, same weight, same insurance value

For future use, could you pay for the shipping and have a pre-paid label emailed to the vendor to print and attach ??

Yes.....I've done it before on items I bought. No surprise though, some vendors use shipping as a profit center

Some days, it feels like ALL of them do... and then the state of WI somehow feels shipping cost is "value added" and charges us sales tax on the shipping... crooks
