FREE: Cute Malachite Earrings

Well I thought the same thing and I have went to the post office to ask them as I have tried to mail several things that way. They told me that if the envelope wont go thru the little card thing they have which has basically 1/4" opening in it then it is considered a parcel and it cost $2.07 to mail it. If the bracelets I have that are made of the seed beads then those will go for the 46 cents and I usually put them in a thank you card wrapped in alittle piece of paper. But if it wont go thru their measuring thing they wont let it go for the price of a stamp. I wish I could send them cheaper. The only way to get around it is to get more than one item as I have alot of people do it. Sorry I wish I could send it cheaper. I hope this helps understand the cost.

Yes I know its seems to stupid to me as it seems like they just don't want to hand stamp it. I guess there isn't much if any of the hand stamping going on anymore. And there is one lady at my post office that feels every envelope and if she feels something it's an automatic $2.07 charge. She says because if she can feel it then it won't go thru the slot thingy. I disagree but I have no say so. I took about 5 of the small poly mailers in there last week and a man waited on me and all he did was put each one on the scales and 2 of the 5 were $.92 and 3 were $2.07 so I questioned him on it and he said it just depends on whether or not it goes thru the slot however he didn't even try to put any of them thru it. Somethings not right I don't think, but I'm just a postal customer who can't beat the government system. If you want to bid on some other items, then I can hold it all till you are done and put it in the poly mailer for the $2.07. I'm all for saving money. Let me know. Have a good day.
