Giving small and medium sellers the sane sweet deal rhey give big box and china would increase sales as well. Instead they use middle men like ebay paypal stamps etc where such deals are doled out discriminatory and profits shaved off the top.
So..no thanks usps
USPS could always try making shipping affordable again. The minimum price they’re asking these days is over $7. It’s a huge premium on products that cost $15-$25. Customers just aren’t willing to pay that. Every time they jack it up a little further to coddle the Chinese some more, I see another falloff in orders.
