USPS rant ( again)

I got 2 15x10 steel rims sent from Washington State. UPS was $154.00 for both. Plus brokerage taxes and duty would have been another $120.00 Canadian. So it would have been approx $250.00 usd. So I said can u check USPS. Sure. Next thing they show up here. $158.60 each so $317.20 usd plus $52.00 Canadian for the brokerage. So approx $360.00 usd. Holy crap. I made a trade for these rims and we were each paying shipping for our own stuff. I offered to pay half the shipping to The guy I got them from it he didn’t want it. Just said to put them to good use. Yes there are still great Americans in the USA. Kim
