Maybe some of you FedEx guys or frequent shippers can help me out here.
I went to FedEx Kinkos today to ship a shirt from ATL to lower Alabama. The shirt was in a non-FedEx padded envelope. The employee told me it would be much cheaper to put it in the standard FedEx envelope, since it was the uniform size and no measuring would be required (which apparantely makes the price go up). Once in the FedEx envelope, we discovered the price didn't change.
The package weighed 0.7 lbs. The price came to 13.80, after the 75% discount. So using my best Auburn math, this comes out to $55.20 for this normally? Really? For a 0.7 lb envelope? Maybe I'm living in the past, but this price seems outrageous to me.
I appreciate the discount, but paid $5.07 instead at the post office for priority mail, which gets there a day later than FedEx would have.
Just wondering if something was wrong here, or does this seem like the normal shipping price?
