No. Freight Prepaid means either the freight is being paid for in the price of the product or being added as a separate line item to the total order. Using prepaid freight the vendor/supplier is compensationg the carrier for the cost. Freight collect means the carrier will bill the consignee for the freight cost. i.e. your account number. To determine which way is the most cost effective depends on the rates you can get vs the rates the vendor will charge. Keep in mind that just because a vendor has a more favorable rate, that does not mean they will pass those cost on to you.
