[Elecraft] USPS and shipping costs

[Jeremiah McCarthy]

Mail order houses that charge shipping based on the price of the purchase rather than on the weight or size bother me and I will avoid them if possible...From places that do this it will cost much more money to ship a two ounce diamond ring worth $500 than another place will charge for a 50 pound bag of fertilizer worth $15...If you are buying many items, as the cost of your purchase goes up, so does your shipping cost...That makes no sense to me...
