Reply to "Charging for Postage"

Like HappyLorisBaking, I use USPS Regional Boxes instead of flat rate boxes. 99% of the time, the Regional Box rate is cheaper. Only 2 negatives to the regional boxes. First is that you can't get them at the post office - you have to order them online. Which is no big deal - they are still free and they ship them right to your house - but you have to make sure you order more before you run out of them. Secondly, if you print up your labels at home - PayPal does not give you the option of shipping with a regional rate box. You have to go to usps.com to print your label (or Etsy). Again, not a big deal, it's just a convenience thing....

 

I've also found that with heavier boxes - UPS is cheaper than USPS. Fed Ex is always the most expensive for me.
