Hello all,

I just started to fill a few orders and have noticed a significant increase in
shipping rates. Appears USPS ground advantage increased by as much as 7% on
July 1 2025. What are you doing regarding rates? Have you started to increase
your shipping rate?

Have a good one and enjoy your weekend.

And the Priority rates also jumped significantly. However, I rarely use that
for shipping anymore.

Yes, I increase my shipping rates to match the current commercial prices for
postage. Well, at least I increase my middle-of-the-road rate I have to charge
for IC to work. It seems like a no-brainer to me to keep up with price increases
since most of my orders are too small to apply any free shipping or postage discounts,
etc.
