Virtually all U.S. eBay and online sellers will be affected by upcoming changes to the postal rates. On March 19, 2007, the Governors of the United States Postal Service approved rate changes effective May 14, 2007: http://www.usps.com/ratecase/welcome.htm
Things are still a bit in flux for some rates, however. According to MultichannelMerchant.com, the USPS Board of Governors asked the PRC to reconsider its pricing recommendations for Standard Mail flats, which they set higher than the USPS had recommended - and are as much as 40% higher than current rates. The publication said “there is no guarantee that the PRC will alter its decision by May 14, the date the rates are to go into effect”: http://multichannelmerchant.com/printchannel/postal/PRC-anomalous-03272007
