Seems like Flat Rate Shipping has gone up?

As stated in the title, a place to discuss cigars and things related to them.

I sent out a FedEx Super Saver "S2" box last night with a bundle of Churchills and Rodolfos and they both fit perfectly for $10.75 flat rate. The S2 box is 8 3/4" wide, so two bundles with 8" cigars or less fit easily. I also sent a bundle of Diademas in this same S2 box. USPS Options would have been $13.65 flat rate. It is $2.90 less and I feel FedEx's service is superior. John

It's actually a double whammy for online shipping.  Because, 1) the base price went up, and 2) they eliminated the Click-N-Ship online discount.

It sucks.

It's cheaper to use your own box than doing the flat rate in almost half of he transactions I've done since the change.
