We have Villages Pack and Ship here in TV.

I used them once. And only once.

Yes, they were convenient.

After I shipped my package I started to think that perhaps they overcharged me because it was so expensive.

So I looked up the rates online.

Convinced that they had made a honest error I called them. I got a very rude response, "we are just an agent and can charge whatever we want". (This was shipped via UPS.) I can't remember the exact upcharge but it was outrageous enough that I vowed never to return.

I now know the location of the "real" UPS and Fedex offices although I do prefer to use the Postal Service. I prepare my shipping documents and pay postage at USPS.com and then just drop off the packages.
