[GreenKeys] FedEx Ground Surcharges notice

[E.]

USPS wasn’t always like that and when they changed to that pricing structure, I asked them why at the post office (15 years ago ;p )… they said they changed pricing based on distance and weight because UPS and Fedex had already doing it for a long time.

Meh, just because everyone else is doing it, doesn’t mean that you should too - but oh well, what can you do ;o ?  So does the airline industry; insurance companies; etc.  One jumps off a bridge, they all do ;p ~
