Jesus. I don't know if the rates are higher elsewhere in the country, but $23 for a small XpressPost package is nothing short of highway robbery. If it were Priority Courier service which is basically next-day delivery, the price is justified. However XpressPost is supposed to be an economical express service. I usually don't pay more than $10 for a prepaid National envelope, less for a Regional. Check with your post office when shipping to determine if there's something more reasonable, often times the second fastest service is only an extra day or two and costs SIGNIFICANTLY less.
