Priority mail is already a rip off as it is. A lot of people overcharging for shipping on ebay calculated by not using flat rates at the very least. Fed Ex labels through ebay are waaaaay cheaper than priority. Most of my heavier items cost half as much w/ Fed Ex. I always check both before buying the label. Unless you are shipping in the same state , the rates arent even comparable.
