Then there's packing charges that also vary by the weight, size, and type of furniture you're buying.

Hmmm. Maybe it is a big deal.

When you put a piece of Amish furniture in the Amish-furniture-gallery.com shopping cart, their exclusive technology instantly calculates the total price to deliver the Amish furniture by the method you select: Self Pick-Up, Curbside Delivery, or White Glove Inside Delivery!

Oh one other thing. How do you get these charges from other stores? Well you call or e-mail them for a shipping charge quote. Who wants to wait a day or so? Not me. I want to know the charges as soon as I put things in the cart.
