At 55c to send anywhere in the US I think it is not a bad service. I have to pay the equivalent of 1.10 USD (1.00 CHF) to send a letter "First Class" (A-Post) inside a tiny country (Switzerland) almost the size of Vermont and New Hampshire combined.
Edit: Corrected price
- matthewdgreen 6y agoBut I'll bet it gets there in a reasonable time frame. I just received a check sent "2 day priority mail" -- took 14 days, and spent most of them stuck in a mail sorting facility.
- jopsen 6y agoHere in Denmark it's 1.78 USD to mail a letter, and that's delivered within 5 days. Next day delivery is 4.7 USD. I reasonably trust it'll get delivered on time, but I haven't tested it. This is letter pricing, for packages the private options are usually cheaper.
- Cthulhu_ 6y agoMind you, Switzerland is a bit more wealthy than the US, and what is the cost of "not first class but regular post" over there?
- sschueller 6y agoUnder 100g is 0.93 USD (0.85 CHF) for B-Post.
- ar0 6y ago"A-Post" is 1.00 CHF, not 1.20 CHF. Still more expensive, though (but way cheaper than the huge prices quoted for Denmark below!).
- sschueller 6y agoAh, you're right, not sure what I was thinking. It's 1.30 if it's a thicker envelope.
