Please note that the annual round of shipping rate increases is now upon us.
Specifically:
- FedEx will be increasing their rates by about 7% as from Monday, 5 January 2009.
- The US Postal Service will be increasing their rates, as from Sunday, 18 January 2009: Priority Mail will increase by 4%, Express Mail by 6% and International services by 9%.
(Although we don’t use them, UPS will also be increasing their rates at the same time as FedEx, and DHL will be ceasing all US domestic services as from Friday, 30 January 2009.)
Note that these are across-the-board increases (i.e. they are not just specific to us) - you will probably find similar shipping increases on other websites that you use.
What does this mean to our customers?
