[Mccoypottery-talk] shipping

[~barb]

I'm not sure if I posted this here before or not, but a story about shipping.

Last year I bought a cookie jar on a live auction without checking the 
shipping prices. When I went to pay, the shipping charges were 
$25.!!!!!!  I couldn't believe it, but figured it was my fault for not 
checking it out first.

Well I get the box and it's the wrong jar.  I call them up, of course they 
apologize and say send the jar back and tell us how much it costs to ship. 
We'll send right jar and also a check for shipping costs.  HAH, I figured 
it was going to cost me $25. no matter what.

Well surprise-surprise .. it actually did cost me $22.50  to ship the jar 
back to them via UPS, the same way they sent it to me. So -- shipping may 
not always be a rip off. And it only went from somewhere in Indiana to 
Oklahoma (and back).
