Since the post office raised the price of a first class package across the country our packages have gone from 500 a week to maybe 100. It will continue to fall as we delete inventory to things that can go either first class mail or first flate rate. Actually has allowed us to better inventory the smaller stuff and clean out storage areas. All deleted things have been sent to the local dump. Our gain is the PO lost.
Maybe they need to raise rates again.
What mess.
“revenue-generating opportunities” = FEES.
This has to stop.
