I keep having issues with shipping, I need some advice. Maybe we can pool some info here and make it easier for everyone. This is what it has cost me lately, am I doing something wrong?
$6.70 to ship a 2oz XT90 to Dual XT60 adaptor via USPS Priority Mail 3-Day in a small bubble mailer.
$19.30 to ship motors and trucks cia USPS Priority Mail 2-Day in a Medium Flat Rate Box.
$23.61 to ship a large set of trucks via UPS ground, as USPS was going to be almost $40.
I have a 0.5 oz BT module I need to mail, that cannot be mailed in an envelope apparently so I don’t know what to do as I don’t wanna spend 7 bucks to ship it.
I don’t know, I was told 1st class was for envelopes. That being said, the postal workers at the PO’s around here are not at all interested in helping or even doing their job.
Also, I’m planning a work trip to Oregon next month (maybe) and really wanna ship my hummie deck ahead of me, but when I shipped to Miami this summer it was 100 bucks each way. That seems massive to me, maybe my perspective is skewed or something, but it seems like a lot.
That effing suck. I usually just shove small things into a padded envelope, log in to the work machine, put it on the work scale, enter zip code and get a stamp and it gets sent out at end of day
First class can be used for any package less than 1lb, and it dosnt matter what packaging you use (bag, envelope, box). Or should only be $3 anywhere CONUS.
For trucks, try disassembling them and using a flat rate bubble mailer ($7).
