FedEx is always cheaper than UPS unless you do a large volume with UPS.FedEx is great.I stronly recommend you use them instead of UPS.Get an account so you get the lowest rates and can process shipments online and dropoff at FedEx/Kinkos locations.Search their website to find the closest drop off location.I don't know how you choose them.For some reason Ebay prefers UPS and USPS.
