Just a FYI. We have only had 1 shipment today where Pirate Ship and Buy Shipping on Amazon had the same label price. Sometimes the rates are lower on Amazon and sometimes higher by anywhere from .05-.40 on less than 1 lb packages. Perhaps things will get in synch in the next few days.

Amazon tends to be a little slow on updating rates when USPS changes rates because they have their own negotiated rates with USPS

USPS Ground Advantage (less than 1lb) appear to be in line with what USPS Ground Advantage Commercial rates show on the USPS site which is the same that we are seeing on PayPal.
So for us … exactly was we were expecting to happen.
