“I'm done!!! Last time I am extorted for shipping”

★☆☆☆☆

written by rickcjmc on 11/06/2015

I have been shopping on this site for about 6 months, and every item I win, I get the most inflated shipping charges tacked on. Then you have to fight with some faceless customer service person who may or may not attempt to find a reasonable shipping cost. Lets not forget the "handling fee". Now let me get this straight:

a) you hire sub-minimum wage work force to "help them out"?
b) all your inventory costs you ZERO, $0, NADA because people like me give it to you?
c) Goodwill Industries cannot negotiate better shipping rates with a major carrier?
d) you charge handling fees for work done by a workforce that already makes at or below minimum wage?

I don't know about the accusations of schill bidding, I like to think there is some honor to this non-profit organization, but seems to me they sure are taking a lot from the very same people that donate stuff to them.

As for me, I'm done. My money spends perfectly fine in every corner of the world and I can no longer support GoodWill industries.

I think you will find Goodwill pays at least the minimum wage. If you want to post 'loose acusations' in your general rant at least get some facts. No one has to buy from anything from any charity, corporate or other. Just build in the costs to the final price and bid accordingly, not that difficult, it's what everyone else does. And your suggestion of schill bidding is based on what? Internet title tattle not facts which is a reoccurring theme here. In your selfish not factual rant you have lost sight of the FACT that Goodwill trains people with reduced chances of employment, they take at risk youth interns, they take disabled people on. Jobs Change Lives.
