Soothing Shrimp Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 A heads up for anyone who uses the USPS mailing system online. News just broke that they have been hacked, and info could included credit cards, addresses and social security numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ch3fb0yrdee Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 Besides using USPS's website, which other services do you guys use for smaller non-flat rate shipping? I've heard of stamps.com but they charge a monthly fee for their services. I'm asking because I usually ship smaller stuff usually in padded media envelopes. I hate waiting in line at usps to get postage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to as well but now you can use paypal for international first class (and it seems cheaper then USPS as well). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
