waking up to the harsh reality of only having UPS as an amazon partnered carrier for sending in FBA shipments now that FEDEX is completely out. besides doing a better job , fedex was consistently 25-30% cheaper. also i am old school and would drop off a van full of 24x20x20s at the fedex distribution center and take away 2-3 chances for a driver to damage my box. dropping off at shipping center like that early in the day, items being checked in the next morning at the nearest distribution center 2 states away . ups takes at least 2x as long and no nearby distribution center. more damage, higher prices, longer delivery times heading into busiest time of year.
ongoing lack of competition can only mean more higher shipping prices.
