#130124 - Using USPS for Mouser/Digi-kay Purchase
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Mr Richard Erlacher you have said

"You can save quite a bit of $$$ if you ask them to use U.S. mail rather than UPS or FedEx to send your parts.

I've had 'em offer to charge me $6 or more to ship a $2 order when they might have done it with a $1.25 using a jiffy envelope and USPS, which they (Digikey, I don't know about Mouser) will do if you ask 'em. USPS usually takes 2-3 days, while UPS takes at least a week unless you really pay a lot. "

I have checked both Mouser & Digi-key & in there shpping policy they have mentioned that they will Use UPS & charge minimum of $40 for sending materila(even 1-4 pcs of smal ICs) to overseas.
Have you used USPS with Digi-Key an did they ship through your USPS account.

What is advantage of having account with USPS (vis-a-vis) discount in shipping rates & otgher benifites
