New Postal Rates, Totally Rediculous!

[John Brown]

You must have been charged for Express Mail. Here are the rates for 6 1/2 pounds from Los Angeles to New York City, quoted from USPS.com.

Express Mail® (Overnight to most areas) $36.90
Priority Mail® (2-3 days) 18.30
Parcel Post® (Additional Fees May Apply) 7 days 12.88

Sombody must have punched the wrong button on the screen.

A guy goes to the U.S. Post Office to apply for a job.

The interviewer asks him, "Have you been in the service?"

"Yes," he says. "I was in Vietnam for three years."

The interviewer says, "That will give you extra points toward employment" and then asks, "Are you disabled in any way?

The guy says, "Yes 100%...a mortar round exploded near me and blew my testicles off."

The interviewer tells the guy, "O.K. I can hire you right now. The hours are from 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. You can start tomorrow. Come in at 10:00 A.M."

The guy is puzzled and says, "If the hours are from 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. then why do you want me ! to come in at 10:00 A.M.?"

"This is a government job" the interviewer says. "For the first two hours we stand around scratching our b@!!s, no point in you coming in for that."

18.30 is what the USPS website will tell you. But once you type in the dimensions it is a whole different story. This is not a large package either. Also, my memory must not be great, its $31.25 not $35.50.

Were you using paypal to ship your item? Looks like a paypal screen. If so, could there be some paypal fees or markup?
