This thread is probably just about over- I ship using USPS Priority Mail almost exclusively. Small box = $5.25* Medium box = $11.30* Large box = $15.80* *If you pay online - a bit more if you pay at the PO
Priority Mail is 2-day delivery which translates to 3-day in Alaska (it gets to the Anchorage Airport Sort Center in 2-days and is delivered by truck 180mi to my PO the next day). But I allow up to 5-days delivery time for Priority Mail out of AK for my customers. Parcel Post takes a min of 18-days and usually 20-days. Overnite Express Letter - takes two days!
UPS/Fedex 2-day delivery for the same item in AK is about 2x to 3x as expensive (of course shipping in/out of AK requires using a NASA Launch to the nearest planet). Guess what it still takes 3-days with them, too!
I ship world-wide using flat-rate International Priority Mail (even to Canada which costs more than within the 50-states). Medium box to UK or EU is $76.50 vs $19.30 inside the US ($8 added for $500 insurance). So you guys in the lower-48 got nothing to bellyache about cost of shipping.
