For at least $63 more in this case ($202 from buydig; $265 locally after
sales tax) -- that's 31% more! It' a Canon A60 case you're wondering.

Well, that's how it goes. If you want them to spend more on shipping
and losses, you need to be prepared to pay for it. Given your retired
status, this all seems a bit whiny. I don't have the luxury of being
home or having a suitable place for them to leave it. Sometimes that means
it's more convenient to pay more in a physical store.

Sorry it came across "whiny" to you; I was ****ed and I don't equate that
to whiny.

What I really wanted to assess was what others thought and I found out.
Unfortunately, there are a number of people who seem to look for postings to
pounce on without contributing an iota of constructive feedback.

That's how it goes. It might be "more convenient to pay more in a physical
store" but a hell of a lot more expensive.

Cheers

I'm sorry if "nothing in life is free" didn't seem constructive. The amount
of ecommerce fraud is nothing small, and it seems like VISA manages to
dump a lot of the suffering back on the vendors.
