Prices for PO Boxes are starting to get too high. I wonder how many people will drop their boxes? Businesses will keep theirs, tax deduction for businesses.
USPS wants to get out of the postal services business. Fedex and UPS are happy.
Okay I see that it is going up $0.15 and my notice 123 is now updated. I still an absorb it since I use postage that I paid 1/2 price so it is only costing me $0.615.
I did for international mailings which I do a lot of. It's a 10 cent increase on foreign mailings right after another $0.10 increase a couple of years ago
Steve, the $0.10 increase is for a letter not an envelope containing merchandise (yes, even 1 stamp).. This topic has been discussed ad nauseum on this forum. Please check out the following link.

The United Kingdom now requires US sellers to apply for a VAT Tax License and pay proper taxes. The EU countries are considering similar options.
