PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) - Do you pay an extra fee for those eggs you bought to get from the farmer to the grocery store? Of course not. But you likely paid a similar fee the last time you bought a car! It's called a destination fee. "It's also called delivery, processing, and handling or inland freight and handling fees," Mike Monticello said. He's a car expert with Consumers Reports. "We know destination fees have something to do with getting a car from the factory or U.S. port to a car dealership, but there's not a lot of transparency beyond that."
