UPS 2nd Day Air Cheaper Than Ground
I have a few orders this morning where the cheapest option coming in is UPS 2nd Day Air. I don't know if I can trust this as the prices are coming in well below USPS Ground Advantage, UPS Ground, 3-day select, etc. Is anyone else seeing this and do I trust this or am I going to be hit with a large adjustment fee later if I select it?
Order Example on a 2lb package:
USPS Ground Advantage $9.21 with a 4 day transit
UPS 2nd Day Air $8.50.

I am seeing the same thing this morning. From PA to OR UPS 2nd Day is $19.50 for Thursday delivery, while the next cheapest is USPS Ground Advantage at $26.93 for over a week delivery time. UPS Ground is even higher at $30.48.
Not sure if I trust this, as my other shipping platforms are quoting $58.72 for 2nd Day Air. I am worried about the large adjustment later too.
Amazon can you help explain if this is a glitch or not?

Having the same thing happen to me. UPS 2nd day air from NJ to CA 8.50. Getting these rates in Veeqo. Worried also about later adjustment. With their apology of course!

Not seeing that. We ship nearly all of our FBM Ground Advantage, and it came up as the cheapest option today (as usual). So, I'm of no help.

I have no experience with this, but I do know from posts in the past that there have been times where Amazon has cut special deals with UPS for deep discounts.
There have also been posts in the past of UPS charging large adjustments after the fact.
Personally, I would stick with the service I normally use. Saving under a buck, with a risk of an adjustment later that is many times that amount is not worth the risk if the regular service meets your delivery promises. JMO.

I am also facing the same issue with UPS 2nd Day Air being the cheapest option!
I also noticed that UPS raised all of their prices..
From NY to NJ a package that is usually $3.55 is now an expensive $7.55 which is absurd in my opinion.
And a package from NY to GA that is usually $6.08 is now an expensive $10.80 which again is absurd.
I'm now either forced to use USPS or UPS Surepost (which is still expensive considering it's meant to be cheaper!)

Seeing the same thing here. Asking Veeqo but no one can give me a straight answer

I am seeing the same thing today. I'm pretty sure UPS will hit you with a large adjustment fee later.

Yep, I saw it to and went with it. If it's a problem, it's not on us sellers, so Amazon/UPS should eat any discrepancies here.

they WILL hit you with adjustments later (like over a month later), we confronted Amazon about this and they basically told us there 'may be' descrepencies between what Amazon thinks is the correct shipping quote and what the real price is.
You cannot trust any of the UPS pricing on here...to make matters worse we've been unable to get UPS to honor any insurance claims for Amazon shipments...they tell us to upload proof of value on the website but it always says 'technical issue, try again later'...and they break every other package they handle....we're done with UPS, at least thru Amazon shipping, unless the item is unbreakable....

I saw that too on a couple orders. Amazon sometimes discounts one rate or another.
