Bought some tools on E Bay $75 w/ free 2 day shipping by Fedex. 10 # package, Vendor is about 30 miles away.
I assume Fedex Ground. NO! Fedex Express
Package left the seller Friday, then to LAX, then by air to Oakland , then on a truck on the way back to LA ,expected delivery Tuesday.
I'm assuming Fedex one rate can beat Fedex ground UPS and USPS.
Oakland must be a west coast hub. But geez, air freight, then back by truck ?
Shortest path for 30 miles is over 1,000, half by air. Not the first time I have seen this.
