Wow…the last 100 of these I bought were 130.00 or 1.30 each. These actually went down?

Yeah the USPS had a weird thing in the past year or so… They had some “temporary” price increase that congress allowed them to do a few years ago expire, so they had to lower their prices back down for a bit there. Then they had an increase approved in Congress to raise it back close to the same. I am not sure exactly how the global ones were affected by it all but I know first class went up, down, then back up.

I bought 40 of the global ones at $1.15 earlier this year and they will probably last me a couple years. Unless maybe I opt to test the waters on international shipping again which I may do. I don’t know if I want to deal with the headache again, but maybe it wouldn’t be as bad as I remember.

Very interesting. I better go out and buy a bunch;)
