King Kong was out of work after the movie so EA hired him to tighten things before they are shipped..

I don't have a dog in this fight, but I find the "lift gate" reasons and extra charges false.

Over the years I have had various peaces of equipment and machinery delivered to my residence in a very rural area (farm country). Shipping fees were either free or a set price delivered to my residence. Sometimes a "lift gate" was offered at an additional cost, which I never needed and always declined. However, several times the delivery truck would show up with a "lift gate" just the same, even though one was never requested and naturally I wasn't charged extra for.

By the way, there is no such thing as "Free Shipping". We all know where that charge is tucked..

If that was what was offered and the deal I stuck, yes I would, and I would not be crying like a little girl for the next 3 years about it!

Of course someone is paying for shipping. We have no pixie dust, but the cost factors in shipping and the factory direct operation with no dealers or distributors provides the best attachments at the best value.

So you're saying that a commercial freight carrier charges the same exact rate for home delivery as they do for commercial businesses?

Business delivery:
They load the truck in the morning, run the route, arrive at business without warning, back in, get unloaded, leave. Done.

Home delivery:
They call, usually the day before, to arrange delivery and give a time window.
Locations are "normally" off the beaten path, not in town with their normal stops.
Locations are frequently more challenging to maneuver and turn around, which requires more time and effort.

I do understand that many homes have big shops, large acreage and can be more truck friendly than some businesses, but the commercial carriers charge the same, no matter the circumstances if it is not a "full blown commercial location"

...arrive at business without warning, back in, get unloaded, leave....

Many businesses post "receiving hours" (which may include short weeks) at their loading/shipping docks that can differ greatly from standard business hours...

And in most cases the LTL yard/dispatch already knows it since drivers are in these locations daily, and communicate to their offices, or the business themselves communicates to the LTL yard and or their dispatch.

Why is there a discussion like this going on? It is very simple. You don't like the shipping policy, or the costs, go somewhere else. No one is making you buy their equipment. There are probably dozens (or more) places to buy the same type of equipment. I have gotten things from several places. Every one had their good points and their bad points. You just have to decide if the good outweighs the bad.

I have not gotten cars from a certain dealer because I didn't like the price or other things. Went somewhere else and got what I wanted, and the deal I liked. No harm, no foul.
