That listing is showing the correct postage rate for 15 pounds, or for a package with a dimensional weight of 15 pounds.

 

USPS charges a "dimensional weight" for any package over 1 cubic foot (1728 cubic inches).  So if you entered a weight less than 15 pounds, you must have entered package dimensions which yield a dimensional weight of 15 pounds.  Check the package dimensions that you entered in the listing.

Not sure where you got that from; USPS Priority Express is absolutely an option... but let's cut the fat off this hog and just tell us the size and weight.

You have a leather scabbard shipping for over $83. That can't possibly be right.

Your leather scabbard shows $130 shipping to me in metro Atlanta. Something is very wrong there.

I am not sure what is off... are you entering the correct package sizes?  Go to your listings and select revise and see what the package dimensions are for the item.  Then if it's correct check the shipping price here>>

The problem is with the PACKAGE DIMENSIONS.  

 

For various ZIP Codes, the scabbard is consistently showing Priority Mail and Parcel Select Ground prices for a weight of 48 pounds.   The item itself is 38 inches long. Apparently the package volume is large enough to compute a dimensional weight of 48 pounds.  The seller should check the accuracy of the dimensions that are entered in the listing.

Leather Scabbard shows $83 to Cali; and also shows it will take 11 to 14 days to get here. What size, weight and 'handling time' are you putting in here?

Remember, it's an auction and it ends on November 11.  So with one-day handling, the delivery estimate is based on a shipping date of November 12, not today.

Just  for grins can you post the  actual  package size & weight along with shipping service that you have inputted for one or two of your current listings?
