Do you pay extra for overnight delivery, or is shipping included in the product price?
In the U.S., on average, you have a choice of delivery options and pay accordingly.
Sometimes you get free delivery, or free delivery with a minimum purchase amount, or a free delivery upgrade promotion . . .
Packages can be sent through various carriers also, who have their own delivery schedules and costs.
The main carriers are the U.S Postal Service, UPS (United Parcel Service), and FedEx (Federal Express.) You probably already know that part.
Generally speaking the lower the shipping cost, the longer the delivery time.
