I read a lot about shipping being to high on clothes.
I have quite a few that I would like to list as groups, not single items. I can understand why someone would get upset over having to pay 3.50 or 3.95 shipping on one item (if they didn't want it priority mail) but as far as groups of clothes are concerned I can't get the shipping under the 3.50 priority rate at least. Some groups will be 3.95.
Now, if I weigh these and try to ship them 1st class, it will take the same amount of postage to ship them that way also.
So, do any of you know of any other shipping method that would actually be cheaper?
I see no reason to list any other shipping except priority if the cost is going to be the same anyway.
Any input on this would be appreciated and thanks!

Yep, the priority rate will be the way to go unless you want to use UPS or another carrier. Unless you get into much heavier weights (I think 5 or 6 pounds plus), parcel post won't be of any help.
