Just an FYI if you're not aware of it...not long ago the USPS added a $7.70 Flat Rate shipping carton to their options...it's almost the size of a shoebox and no matter how much it weighs when you fill it, the shipping will only cost a flat rate of $7.70...I recently bought 20 boxes of Hornady .440's...shipping was only $7.70.mwindy said:

That flat rate thing is great! i bought,10 bxs. of 495 balls,and 23 lead ingots ,some patches etc.total weight was 53 pounds, my mailman weighed it before delivery,said that just wasn't right 53 lbs. for $8.10 gotta love the look on his face when he delivered it....
Sorry for the delay...just noticed your post...my purchases were not from businesses...I buy a lot of my stuff from individuals I hear about, or through auctions I find, etc, so my references are one time situations where someone had bought out a small Mom & Pop ML business in their garage or something, then resells the stuff.mwindy said:
Individuals are usually good about working with buyers to ship the way the buyer wants...companies may be so automated into UPS type shipping systems that they can't/won't offer the USPS alternatives...dunno.
