Transportation is the hidden funny money of buying and selling because no one pays attention to it, except those who sell transportation services.
Rates vary enormously between truck, rail, air, United Parcel, Fed-Ex, and US Postal service deliveries. Differences between one and three day delivery prices are quite large.
