This is similar to the response I received. I wonder sometimes if The Villages negotiates delivery contracts with USPS. This agreement could be a way of keeping costs down. I understand from talking to the Lady Lake USPS that Amazon is showing interest in this too.
Wish I knew who to talk to in TV. All new purchasers should be informed.
