JENSALES shipping cost

[Anonymous-0]

I posted a thread earlier in the week complaining about JENSALES shipping cost. $11.59 UPS shipping cost on a $6.95 Tractor Resource Data book. If I have the privelege of complaining, I also should be straightforeword enough to report when the complaint has been rectified. Shortly after sending my complaint to this list, I got a very nice e-mail from JENSALES stating that the book was sent out to me USPS (not a normal practice for their business) at a cost of $4.60 (not the $11.59 UPS cost). I was in business for myself for 28 years and know that a business is driven by your customers but that sometimes customers send the wrong messages. Kudos to JENSALES for acknowledging their customer's complaints. I received the Tractor Resource Data Book yesterday and it is well worth the $11.55 that I spent for cost of book and S & H. Thank you JENSALES and my wishes for success in operating your business.

Thanks for the correction. It's nice to hear the good as well as the bad.

I too dislike business practices that use shipping services that are more expensive than necessary. Just raises the cost of goods to the customer. Shipping costs do not add product value but do increase product cost. Remember when Greyhound offered package service terminal-to-terminal before the days of nationwide UPS and FedEx?

There is a guy on Ebay handle of IH=Eagle that charge s more than double to ship items. He will not answer emails either. I think they use excessive shipping costs to boost bottom line.

George,
When I was a student at the Univ of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, PA I took an anthropology course in American Indian cultures. My heritage is Scotch,Irish,and American Indian (Cherokee Indian) and hailed from the Great Smokies in North Carolina. When the klan migrated north, some of them stayed in Kentucky and became horse traders thorobred racing horses)and tobacco farmers and became millionaires.Some in Kentucky at this date still raising horses and spending their millions. The other part of the klan migrated into West Virginia and Pennsysvania and became Mountain men,moonshiners,and other outlaws. There is a book written about Jacob Greathouse who was a mountain man that traveled between PA and WVA. I was pleased to find out about my heratige. What am I? I'm a retired farmer,coal miner,steel-worker,big-truck driver, Elect engineer (still working at age 69)and still enjoying life spending money on my antique John Deere tractor(s). Thanks for the reply. GOD BLESS

Joe, that is the bunch I know. They got rich in the tobacco business. They still fool with race horses. Teddy, Leonard, John, are all in the Horse business and still raise tobacco as far as I know. I haven't seen any of them in several years. They did have a tobacco warehouse where we sold with them for several years. Not sure about the warehouse since the buyout. Some are still running, but don't know about theirs.
