Has the price of shipping jumped up for anyone else?
« on: August 04, 2008, 02:38:34 AM »
I just shipped 2 balls out from Fl to MI and my total came to be $47.70 for DHL Ground! I know shipping at one of those postal centers is generally a little more but damn, it's getting to the point now where i'm going to have to add $5 to every shipping price.

That's because USPS is garbage.

I have shipped several over the last couple of weeks and I too have noticed that the prices have jumped about $3 to $4 per ball over normal.  Scott

Shipping from my job is about a buck a pound until I cross the middle of the country.  I can probably ship NJ to CA for about $23.

ups shipping from work didn't seem to go up too much % wise unless i am shipping long distances (i.e. east to west coast). that has definitely increased. course you can't blame ups with the cost of fuel rising.
