Tomaz,
What are you trying to do with zip code locations?  I know Google/Yahoo have some pretty powerful tools.  Depends on what you want to do.

Here is the scenario;You have a product to sell. You have a website with the product that is available on. Plus the product is available in major retailers in the US. The user visits you site and sees that the product can also be purchased at a locat store. Now, to see which retailer carries the product, the user inputs their Zip Code to see which locations and retailers close to their home has your products. That`s the type of locator I am talking about.

hmm...Sounds like something that needs some back-end programming to get it going.  You could try GoogleMaps.  I know MapQuest/Microsoft have these kinds of tools but they start at $10,000

Tomasz,
What is wrong with the one you found? I think they have good rates don`t you?
If you are looking for somebody to generate a custom script for you, I would suggest going to Elance.com  (somebody mentioned them here earlier and I`m using that system now myself for a project.)
Absolutely outstanding value and an incredible tool for people that aren`t able to handle the complexities such as the one you mention.

For simply ZIP code look-up here are some other examples:

I think the exact url for USPS is http://www.usps.comzip4</A>
http://www.semaphorecorp.com/cgi/form.html</A>
http://acg.media.mit.edu/people/fry/zipdecode/</A>  MIT Visual ZipCode Decreaser is a Java applet which maps United States zip codes on a map, reducing possible matches as the number is typed
However after reading through all the posts I realized that you are looking for integration into your website. 

http://bullseye.electricvine.com/</A>Look at the host it yourself solution.  I believe from your post that this may be what you are looking for.  They have several solutions which inexpensive.
