--- Quote from: SXWolfgang on October 27, 2013, 07:17:39 AM ---Hey people

I am new the these forums, but have been using the website (and reading the forum posts) for a very long time.  I live in the UK and I have made my own covers for NES, N64, Gameboy and Gameboy Advance.

However, I now need some help.  The place I usually buy the cases from (Univeral Game Cases) has now been sold out and does not look like they are going to get any more in.  I know they are sold in america etc, and I was wondering if someone could help me locate some that I can get shipped over here?

I did find some on eBay but the seller wants to charge something like $100 to ship :(

Any help would be appreciated.

They're horrifically inefficient and the steep rise in fuel costs in the US coupled with the fact that they had been operating in the red for decades caused a panic which in turn cause the rate spike.  Instead of doing it the logical way, which it would have been to gradually raise rates over the years BEFORE the spike in fuel costs and to prevent an operating in perpetual debt.

If Congress would get out of the way then USPS wouldn't have to do things like drastic rate increases. But we all know Government Knows Best! /sarcasm

I agree. I think privatizing it would work wonders, but I don't see that happening soon...
