If you take a look at the minimum that the post office (and other shipping modes) charge, $14 is not unreasonable at all. If others are charging less, they are "eating" some of the cost of shipping. A small shop wouldn't be able to do that for long and stay in business. A place like MSQco has it factored into their fabric pricing (and likely has negotiated rates that are lower than public rates for shipping since they do so much shipping volume).
