At Parcel Forum this year a statement made by a presenter of one of the session I attended was that end consumers care more about reliability than actual speed of delivery. The 2 day or less expectation for delivery was lower on customers expectations list than paying slightly less with a reliable 3 day delivery. I’m curious as consumers would you rather pay slightly less and have 95%+ on time with a 3 day delivery or pay slightly more and have 85%+ on time 2 day delivery? How has current economic conditions impacted your position? How is the expansion of overseas product availability with slower delivery times but lower cost impacted your position? I’m genuinely curious what those in my network value most from retailers when you place your e-commerce orders in terms of shipping options and expectations.
