The only time I ship a bridal gown USPS is when it going Internationally. Othwerwise, since it weighs probably 6-8 lbs (is that what it weighs) it is less expensive to ship Fedex ground (or you can use UPS through eBay if that is easier for you). Even though USPS parcel post is less than Priority mail (for U.S. shipping), I never use it because it takes forever to get there and has no tracking and is more expensive than if you ship it UPS ground or Fedex Ground. When shipping UPS ground you can print your label through Paypal, but you have to set up a UPS account first.
