Default shipping solutions

Evening all, earlier today, a terrible thing happenned.
I run a small ebay deal just like a bunch of other people, but I had an edge. I could ship any package anywhere within the confines of North America for a flat rate of $3. Now that advantage has evaporated and I find my self needing a new method of transport for the books I sell. Fedex is a no go, too expensive, but the post office is no good either.

Does anyone know of shipping solutions that will work for me now?

Much love and many thanks,

Cam

you don't like USPS's media mail? It's like $1.80 for a regular sized book.

I just found out about it about 4 hrs ago, that works even better than what I had before. It's nice to see that 2+2 would have come through like normal, Thanks all.

Were you normally getting a bulk rate or something?

No bulk rate, I'm a manager for Federal Express and as such could get a favorable rate. Now things are different and our discount is hardly worth mentioning.
