Mail & Shipping - Recommendations, Questions, and Answers
in Classifieds ·
A few days ago, I was at the local USPS office sending a small perfume package via certified mail, weighing in at just 0.43 lbs with a shipping cost of $5.75, yet my sister went to a different branch in the same city to send a heavy 22lb box for a charity drive 👍 and ended up paying $6.75 for certified shipping as well... I haven't dealt with much parcel shipping myself, but looking at the numbers, it feels like there's something fundamentally off about the price gap between half a pound and twenty-two pounds $1.00...?? 🤷
