I've been using fedex smartpost for more than 2 years now. It's a great way to save money on shipping. As John pointed out, you can't accept no for an answer from fedex. First they said they were only going to allow smartpost accounts for bi... May 24, 2012 |

Totally agree with this. After I changed the design and navigation on my website last year, my parents (in their late 70s and 80s) were one of the first ones to give it a test drive and they said it was easier for them to shop and browse. I th... May 17, 2012 |

The flat rate padded 9 x 12 envelope rocks. Since there's a jump in the flat rate price with a medium-sized box, this padded envelope is a great alternative that has already saved me a lot of money, especially when the package is over a pound.... April 26, 2011 |

Great interview. I've gone through similar issues [read train-wrecks] with inventory...it's a nightmare to discover you don't have something in stock a customer orders from you (a risk when selling on your website, ebay and amazon simultaneous... January 13, 2011 |

I recall there was a write-up done by PE about two years ago when shopping carts were being reviewed. I was sold then and soon signed on and haven't left. It's a great alternative to Yahoo's cart which I had found confusing to use. <e... August 17, 2010 |

I'm amazed in 2009 there isn't a website yet that calculates shipping charges for USPS, Fed Ex and UPS from entering zip codes and weight of a package. June 30, 2009 |
