That one is a good one! When i ship and i don't already have a box, which most of the time i dont and have to buy one it cost more. Also it's cheaper if you have a small item like a dog shirt that weighs nothing, if you buy the small little envelope thingys and they just weigh it and you give them the zipcode you are sending it to than just shipping priority cause the box is free but they charge you a set amount no matter what you send, so if you are sending one tiny item they will still charge you $4.60 or whatever. That happened to me the other day, i had my own envelopes, about 3 and in each i sent only one item, it was dog clothes and each costs like $5 so in total it was $15, i was so mad, idk why but they told me priority was the only way i could send them. I think they jipped me!
When i went to another P.O. and sent something similar the guy was very nice and told me how i can save money, in total it cost me $1.40 to send the very same item!!
