| Is Ground Advantage’s weight limit still 15.9 ounces, as when it used to be First
Class? What’s the 2nd cheapest USPS mailing service?

No, it was combined with Parcel Select and now goes all the way up to 70 pounds.
The second-cheapest is Priority.

Is everyone else surprised at the rates for Ground Advantage? I got a quote today
of over $5 for a couple of small tiles. I feel guilty charging that much but
I can’t afford to eat that cost. What’s working for you guys?

No.
Ground Advantage is the same price that First Class was. Weight and distance
(zone) makes a difference.
Are you getting you rates from USPS.com or the less expensive rates from PirateShip/Paypal/ShipStation.
You might want to spend some time researching the rates charged through the various
services.

Check our pirateship.com . They now integrate from Paypal so you don't need
to copy & paste the information in. I love it and they do deep discounts.

Will do that. I was reading about PayPal and Ship Station earlier.

I was actually surprised the Ground Advantage rate didn't change much from
First Class, a few cent increase for me (I use ShipStation). As others said make
sure you are using a discounted commercial rate for shipping!

I was just looking at scales and label printers and I’ll be making that change.
Ship Station looks like a very good option for me. Thanks for the input.
