We had to adjust the shipping rates a bit

We had to adjust the shipping rates a bit as the USPS made an astronomical jump in rates. I tried to configure it so we continue our policy of just about breaking even on the shipping department overall, although rates are now so complex that we would spend our whole day figuring if we always charged actual rate, so some will end up paying a little extra, some will be paying less than it costs us to ship their package. But the exact amount you would pay is always displayed on the shopping cart screen at every step.

For some reason it likes to display "Overseas" at first, you can of course use that drop-down menu to get to your preferred method. If I can't figure out how to change the default back to "best rate USA" I will get with my shopping cart service to help resolve that puzzling issue.

The post office raised their package rates so high, I fully expect my carrier to be driving a new Chrysler 300 with spinner hubcaps and rich Corinthian leather appointments, I hope they share some of their newfound wealth with the Old Postman's Home or the Carrier's Dogbite Victim Benevolent Fund.
