use a plain box to mail and send media rate - it will get you more bidders.

Thanks for the info I never thought of it. o a plain brown box at media rate will cost less shipping?

If I wrap the box in a brown paper bag will that work?

Just curious if you found a lower rate for shipping? I would be interested if the cost was less.

I just guessed at a zip and weight for the package and used the postal calculator. It will take longer to arrive and the package needs to able to be able to be opened or examined by the post office as describe below but a 5 pound package from a random MI zip to me cost $4.80 to send. You would want to check if the post office allows you to wrap the box in plain paper but still use their flat rate box. It does need to be identified as Media Mail on the outside.

Hope this helps you out.

So basically I have to go to the post office and see what they tell me about all of this then. I will go tomorrow and then I will let you know what they say when I get back home. I also have to go to the library and do some school work so I do not fall behind, because I am in college. When I get all of that dome I will let you know what they say. I will go to the post office tomorrow and then when I get to the library I will let you know what they say alright. I hope it goes the way that you think it will go, because I have tons and tons of quilting magazines to get rid of lol
