[wsantia1]

On the website they now have Priority Mail Large Boxes that you can order. They are the same size as the Regional C boxes. lol

....Where??....gotta link?.....cost?....say 9 Lbs

Don't know the price. You have to plug the weights into the calculator.

Just ordered a case of 25...........I don't see it on 'click and ship' tho.....??.........wonder if we'll need to use Stamps.com?

..9#'s comes out to $30 to you Willie..figured as std box...yada yada

That seems like a lot. It was only about 20 last year.

I shouldn't need it as they already told me I could........that new large priority box looks interesting tho...same size as a 'C'...now to figure the rates out for 8, 9, 12....14Lbs...??..it's not on 'click and ship'..... ...wonder if it will be..??

on click n ship you can use the "calculate shipping" option...use the "priority mail" option at the top of the list..
rate for using a third party unit such as stamps.com will be considerably cheaper than click n ship.

The old 'C' box was 15 X 12 X 12.....'click and ship' priority doesn't list that size box yet......that size was just added for Priority

you can now order that size tho.....Willie posted a link for ordering below somewhere....

while i still have quite a few C boxes left i just ordered 25 of the new boxes from click n ship..99% of my shipments are foods..but sometimes i get big orders for flake foods which requires a big box..
now using stamps.com and the rates are far less than with click n ship...while a 14 b box from cleveland to central michigan is only $10.00 , sending one to houston is almost $30.00...but still not too bad..

Yes, my box will be a zone 5....it's getting clearer now.....but I don't ship the carton volume that you do tho....myself, maybe 3-5 boxes/month...more occasionally.....is the monthly rate worth it to me...likely not...

[John Patakos]

i really think that the $16 a month is worth it..if you ship 6 C boxes a month you are going to save about $60 or close to it..that's savings to my customers...
i recently had a lady reorder 1 lb of Plecocaine from me..i used click n ship..so the food cost her $6.00 ; but the shipping (legal flat rate envelope) was $6.45......but now with stamps it will only be $5.75...

Every time I talk shipping with Stephan, he tells me to switch to stamps.com  He loves it, says basically the same thing John is saying, but he is shipping lots of boxes.....
