USPS is good for letters, and things sent in the Flat Rate boxes, but I find that for just about everything else that you package send out in a box of your own, you are money ahead by using Fed Ex or UPS. I find USPS's fees get out of hand, as soon as your box is larger then 11" square. They hit you with some hefty oversized fees! I don't consider that a large box at all. Once you get an oversized fee, you might as well ship with UPS or Fed Ex. They'll include tracking numbers that actually work, and your buyer will get whatever it is you sent him or her about 2 days sooner. That's been my exeperience within the states here.
