Would it be cheaper for shipping if you gave the option to send stuff USPS? Grandson was trying to order a FFR shirt for my wife for Xmas and for a $6 shirt, shipping was going to be almost $12. Just asking if it would work......

Give FFR a call. I've found that the shipping cost varies and is cheaper if you order from a live person.

Hi Dave,

Part of the reason we prefer to use FedEx to ship is because we can track those items once they leave the building. With the USPS, we can't.

Is tracking that important with a $6 t-shirt? I understand if it's a set of $700 spindles but t-shirts, hats and other lower priced items we could benefit with USPS.

Dave.

I was wondering why I get different shipping quotes using the on-line store vs. calling my order in to a live person?

Ray,

Our shopping cart's interface with FedEx is a little different than the FedEx software that the shipping department uses. I've checked everything I can to try and match it as best I can and am looking into a new shopping cart software option that I hope to get installed soon and will improve the shipping quotes/prices online.
