I guess they need to support their new "Informed Delivery" service, which is rather redundant IMHO!

....and where they apparently have more latitude to raise the Competitive rates, we can probably look forward to more of the same. I still can't get over the Small Flat Rate Box costing more than $7 to send---wtf?! Postage is *so* expensive and buyers often don't appreciate that, particularly those who are used to Prime....
Postal services continually increasing charges always seems a false logic to me. I feel they would increase revenue more by lowering the price and attracting more people to actually use the postal service.
Is it better to sell a service for 5 dollars to 100 people or 3 dollars to 200 people?
The way postal prices are going it will soon be cheaper to get in the car and deliver the items yourself. It's already uneconomical to ship a lot of things.
