I set prices to include shipping for pet tortoises or food items. It's not really free, is it?
Amazon 'prime' customers dont pay shipping either - really?
You are paying for shipping no matter. It's a 'gee whiz' bit of non sense. No freight company gives there service away. Large volume shippers may gt a break. Total purchases exceeding some amount just afford the seller to take the small loss in mark-up to say 'shipping is free' but it is NOT.
You're paying for it.
Delivered price is the cost of the item. When I sell a leopard tortoise 'includes shipping' or 'shipping included' I am reducing the hassle to get to that 'delivered price'.
You know up front. It's more honest.
