Have zero issues with USPS. But, when was shipping tubes $5?
In 2005 you could ship to Canada for $4.

But this means about $13 to $15 to ship a poster. drymounting nuts. used to be like $5.

Another recent development in case y'all hadn't heard - dollars aren't backed by gold anymore either.

Ha...This thread is bringing all kinds of folks out of the woodwork :clap:

I got a PO Box years ago so all tubes just go there somewhat safely instead of "tubeball" in the yard or hanging out of the mailbox, in the ditch by the street, etc...

Especially after they got rid of the dedicated "door" for handling package pickups. Been a nightmare since covid.

I finally gave up on USPS not too long ago, after they took 2 and a half weeks to deliver a guaranteed priority overnight shipment. It was time sensitive and getting a refund on postage didn’t solve anything.
