What do you guys use to ship posters, cds, vinyls? USPS priority mail seems to be the most logical, but only for a smaller box/package. Anything larger increases the cost dramatically.

    normally there are 3 "categories" for shipping

    1-super expensive
    2-expensive (normal)
    3-willneverarrive (the one universal used to ship the loxl boxes)

    INSIDE THE USA
    Inside the USA I normally ship priority or first class depending on which one is cheaper there some limits on weight for first class, when you reach that limit then the package can be sent only as priority. and don't forget to include a tracking # that's around 90cents more, insurance is optional and is not expensive either.

    INTERNATIONALLY
    I normally use the USPS, I had some problems in the pass with them but I've sent tons of things ant the only things missing in action are the very small packages, but I've never have a problem shipping outside the USA using the option 2, the people working on the USPS offices told me that the super expensive option and the expensive option are almost the same, and the packages arrive at the same time so there's not need to pay extra.

    I use Canada Post. www.canadapost.ca When shipping posters out I ship them by Xpresspost. So there's a tracking number & insurance if the package ever get's lost in the mail. The majority of PJ goodies & stuff I ship out is to the USA.

    Plus I love my local Canada Post store. I'm there 2-3 times a week for the past 8 or so year's. Good friends with the people working there. It's great! :D
