Fedex Extra Large Box regraded to Customer Packaging - big rate increase
Fedex One Rate. Use your own box?
Does anyone know where I can find a large box for shipping?
Large shipment question
Can FedEx pick up my FedEx One Rate shipment?
If I overstuff a FedEx Envelope or FedEx Pak could my rate change?
Can I ship via FedEx Ground with FedEx One Rate pricing?

I shipped Christmas presents to my daughter and son-in-law using a Fedex Extra Large Box and 2 day Express flat rate. Some days later I received Fedex Revenue Services indicating that the package had a rate change from $37.50 to $220.83. No explanation was provided. I called FedEx multiple times to ask why. I never got an answer. So I finally disputed the charge with my credit card company. FedEx responded to them with paperwork indicating that the shipment was regraded to customer packaging. But it wasn’t customer packaging, it was a FedEx Extra Large Box which is clearly shown in the photo that FedEx took when they delivered it.
Has anyone run into this? Is there any recourse? I lost the dispute FWIW.
Appreciate people’s thoughts.
I heard recently that you can use your own box for Fedex One rate? What has been peoples experience with this? There is a chart somewhere out there that showed cubic inches and then what size it corresponded to. What was interesting is it looked like by using your own box you save money, or can use a larger box than the express boxes...
Not sure if this is the right sub. If not could someone direct me to the correct sub?
I need a box for shipping a large item on ebay. The dimensions need to be at least 35" x 17" x 5"
Thank you.
