Shipping is not cheap for any of these services. I don't use UPS much, but I use USPS and FedEx as a rule. I almost never use USPS ground as it's more expensive than FedEx and less reliable from my experience.

I ordered my wife some car supplies a couple of weeks ago and got a similar list of selections like this when checking out. Was less weight and the charges were not as much, but the highest were up around $100 or so. It was sent from New Jersey to Kansas. I think it was around $12 or so for the lowest UPS shipping price which was the cheapest. Got here in about 4 days.

I would guess the shipped got the large shipper discounts as I think they are strictly online sales. As an individual I would certainly expect to pay more when shipping something as compared to a large online shipper. Shipping is really becoming a charge to be seriously considered these days.
