I am using Viabox its a shipping forwarding service, basically its a virtual US adress to ship domestic only  shipments for people outside of US.

I bought a large item that is fragile (Electric Cello) and on the site there is an option to use either Fedex or USPS, the difference in prices however is huge... 

For FedEx it is 306 using the "Priority" option and 206 for the "Economy" option.

however for USPS it is only 11 dollars, not 110 , just 11 dollars , I checked if its an error or not but its the same only 11 dollars.

now I am wondering will they ship my item without blowing up with a nuke first? why is FedEx so expensive ? because USPS a crappy service? I never dealt with any of those always UPS and Royal Mail, so thats why I'm asking.
