i do not consider $110+ for overnight from ohio or thereabouts (and NO 2day,
ground or use MY fedex account # possible) a good experience..
i consider that a rip off..
when i ship something, as you well know, i ship the cheapest way and the way
the customer wants it shipped, not the most profitable for me.. :-)

it really burns me when these things come up and there are hidden charges..
