    USPS increases rates

    Yesterday ushered in yet another rate increase at the USPS It effects First Class Mail, Priority Mail and package insurance. While we work hard to keep our shipping rates very low, the increase in shipping charges was not our doing. Sorry

    I think since they are going that way anyhow they should just take it for free.

    W.T.H.! I call it Ship & Pray. The VA Hospital sends all my meds & mail to me by UPS or FedEx. However, if they do send it USPS, it's comes Delivery & Signature confirmation. However, the mail person has not gotten that memo, and just throws it on the door step. The main problem with USPS is that you never know what you're going to get. Some times, they are great. Fast & on time. Other times, it's "Kiss your stuff bye bye" That's why I usually always ship Priority Mail.

    This increase effects international also. Did a shipment today to the UK which is usually around the $7.50 mark, cost was $9.45.

    Found that out too when I went to the post office. Priority Mail International really took a hit with a $7.00 increase on a small flat rate box.
