Hey everyone,
Does anyone happen to know the actual difference between sending something via standard registered mail at the post office versus using a FedEx pickup service?
Yesterday, I dropped off a registered envelope at the local post office and it cost me $4.25, but when I went with a FedEx pickup today, the price jumped to $11. Both packages were just simple envelopes of roughly the same weight.
Is FedEx always going to be that much more expensive, or am I just paying extra because they come right to my door?
