Buy and purchase a television, they don't add a shipping charge, do they?
Yet the television had to be shipped there, so Amazon is cheating people

charging shipping, right?

Unless a mail order company drop ships from the manufacturer, they had to
pay shipping to a warehouse somewhere somehow. This is no different than
a retail store paying to have stock shipped to them.

So you agree that Amazon, Dell, etc. are dishonest because they break out a
shipping charge when B&M stores absorb it in the product cost? Heck, I bet
even Lee Valley charges shipping.
