Postal rates up again
Just returned from the post office. First class packages with tracking is now $3.00, up from $2.67. Don't know how I missed hearing about the increase. Doesn't seem like much, but if all of my listings sold on eBay today it would cost me over $100.00 more in shipping costs. To add a little salt to the wound eBay will charge another 12% on to the increase.
Need to rethink my selling strategies. Best regards, Joe |

IF a First Class package is 9 ounces or more, since early this year, the cost has been over $3. On ebay this morning, 4 oz and less FC mailings were $2.61 while 5-8 oz FC mailings were $2.77. What was the weight of your package?

I think those are retail prices. eBay has a discount on shipping. I printed three labels this a.m. from my store and noticed that the eBay shipping charge stayed the same but the discount value increased.

Stamps.com guys. Online prices on 1st Class still seems static from what I've seen so far. USPS is trying to discourage paying for postage at the Post Office from what I can tell.

Gotta use eBay shipping labels when selling stuff through eBay - so much easier and cheaper. |
