    You can just let the free market solve this problem for you. It doesn’t happen often, but it’s actually true here.

    It’s super fucking easy too: place the burden of delivery on the seller/shipper, and presto, suddenly paying a little more for non-shit delivery becomes worth it. Or they keep trying till they get it right.



  • Also, risk is a factor.

    If you lend money to your flaky cousin, you might want more interest to cover the risk of him never paying you back. If you lend money to your twin sister who has never missed a single thing in her life, maybe half a percent will do.

    Well, the US just started moving into flaky cousin territory after two centuries of reliable sister.
