Hey everyone,
        I would like to tell you all about something really cool that I hope is as
helpful to you as it has been for me. Many of you have to send U2 CDs,
etc. to people you trade with, often just guessing as to postage until you
make that long trip to the post office.

Well....
The USPS now has ONLINE rate calculators!! They work VERY well (as long as
you know the weight of the item(s)). For example, a standard single CD in
a padded envelope is about 4 ozs. You can go to this site, type in a US
location or the country you wish to send to, and it'll give you cost of
ground, air, global priority, etc.

Did you know sending an uninsured 24" x 36" 1.0 pound package to South
Yemen will cost you $8.48 and take 4 to 7 days?

Visit the rate calculators at:

PS: This is INVALUABLE for eBay related stuff!!
PPS: Anyone besides Mike Cummins get the "South Yemen" reference? <ROTFL>
