Start of story on Yahoo.com:

"The cost of mailing a letter will increase to 39 cents on Jan. 8.

The Postal Service's board of governors approved the two-cent increase in first-class postal rates late Monday. It is the first increase since June 2002."

Click here for the full story.

Better raise your eBay shipping fees by 25% to make up for this 5.4% increase. laugh.gif

Great point! SASEs for anything that might take awhile should probably be sent with "extra" postage now.

Just a reminder that postage is $0.39 starting today!

Don't forget to add a $0.02 stamp or get new stamps. If you don't, you're going to have mail returned to you.

Nothing like waiting in line for 28¢ worth of 2¢ stamps, just so the stamps you already have can be used dry.gif
