Well, if you need something shipped to you, you're probably paying for it if it's not a loss leader/cost-of-business for the shipper. Buy something from Walmart and they're charging you shipping if you're not having it sent to one of their stairs. So you can't lump in shipping on one end and ignore it on the other.

Your entire criticism seems to be "there may be specific circumstances in which this isn't actually cheaper, and that's bad because Mark Cuban."
