They are both $8.10...you can fill them with rocks or lead and they will still be $8.10 But you can't stuff them so they bulge or they will chage you regular priority rate.

I like the flat rate boxes but be careful what you send flat rate may be cheaper in a regular priority box. Depends on your weight and zone you are shipping too.

Yup, it's a 70 pound limit and $8.10 for either size. I love these things. I have pushed the 70 pound limit darn close a couple of times. I would hate to be a mail carrier.
irked is correct about being carefull with items that weigh only a few pounds. Sometimes it's actually cheaper to send them in a regular Priority Mail box, sometimes not. I just offer both flat rate and calculated shipping and let the buyer choose which is the cheapest when they checkout. 1 out of 4 people are mentally unbalanced.

I was going to state that you really should pick up the regular priority boxes. In my case, I rarely use the flat rate boxes as it usually is cheaper to send items in a regular priority box. Also get yourself a scale that will weigh items by the ounce. You would be surprised at how much money you can save with one of these. You will cut your trips to the PO by 90% or more. I personally never to the PO anymore except when I ship international.
