I have been buying direct from manufacturers for a few years now.
Sure I don’t get it in 1 day. The common carriers are a hit or miss (FedEx straight up doesn’t deliver on weekends).
Sure, I may pay more. I’ll tank the cost if it’s a quality item.
Sure, shipping isn’t “free” and return shipping may have a cost. But as I have learned, free shipping and returns is usually built into the cost when most people may not use it.
