I ordered a 60-pound mini-fridge from Amazon with overnight Prime shipping for $3.99...
They sent it from Nevada to New York, via FedEx.
Out of curiosity I checked the rate for that, assuming it was just myself shipping something, and the cost was...
FedEx Standard Overnight®
3:00pm the next business day to most cities
$219.97
Now, I'm aware these online stores get big bulk shipping discounts, but ... $220 is a lot to be condensed down. What percentage do they really get off? 50%? 75%?
And this fridge is one sexy bitch,
