I've been using Pirate Ship for a couple or 3 yrs now. While it's only a small amount less than other places, it gives you the choice and price of each type of shipping. Certainly is convenient - fill out online, pay, print label, then put package in mailbox and it's gone. OR, if shipping UPS, seems like they might have a pickup by UPS, not sure. I just take to local UPS and lay package on counter, scan and head home. Not much waiting in line.
