Surprise surprise, the US Post Office raised it's rates this week with nary a word of warning...Grrrrr.
US Priority Mail will now be $6.55 for a flat rate envelope and $7.05 for small flat rate box.
Internationally, First Class Package is the only allowable option to send merchandise in a cost effective way. Paypal software now rejects anything besides documents for regular First Class Mail which is how I have been shipping for the past year.
New Rates:
Canada First Class Mail Package $10
International First Class Mail Package $14
I don't even know what Priority Mail International will run but I suspect they tacked on a lot of money. It's at least $30 to Asia and probably a lot more elsewhere.
My ancient shopping cart software is primitive and I'm not about to ask Jenny to change it right now... I am making multiple item orders flat rate by adding only $.01 to additional items so hopefully that helps.
Anyhow, that's the story. I'm doing the best I can, thanks everyone!
Hi Peter,
ReplyDeleteIs that possible to use First Class Mail for U.S. shipping too. Thanks
Anyone who doesn't want their Ti Mini's from this morning because of the Postal Increase can just pass that right along to me! I won't charge anything for assuming the obligation. I'll suffer the increased postage to score one that I missed.
ReplyDeleteIt's possible Brett. However, it would mean I would have to change my packaging and make extra steps for me creating mailing labels. I'm debating it.
ReplyDeleteThere are still plenty of plain ones here and I will be anodizing some of them. So just email me and I'm happy to hook you up. lottagear2000-pp@yahoo.com
