13 ounces (the limit for First Class Postal service packages) is
0.8125 pounds, so it might be possible to -mail- the new board and not
use UPS. The postal service would be cheaper, but you'd have to add
insurance, so the price might be a toss-up vs. UPS. If the board
would fit into a small Priority Mail box, (likely), the cost would be
less than First Class.

It's just one of those things that really annoy me. I ordered the
KSYN3A. Shipping via UPS was calculated as $20.00+ for a package
weighting .8 pounds. When I run the same locations and service
through UPS.com I get $8.38. That's a of markup on the shipping.
Just sayin....
