Does PBS not use media mail anymore? I had to use first class on my last mailing with PBS postage. |

Why? There is still media mail. Somtimes, it is cheaper to use media mail rates. That is $2.38 for up to 1lb. First class is cheaper up to 7ounces which is $2.24. I even use first class for 8 ounces as it is only .03 cents more than media mail and gets there faster. For 8 ounces, it is $2.41. Go onto usps.com and look at the rates. |

What Priscilla said. If your outgoing book (according to the database) weighs under 7 oz. it's cheaper to mail it First Class, so the PBS label generater chooses the cheaper rate. Over 7 oz. is cheaper to mail Media Mail, and your mailing label will be printed to reflect this. Occassionally there are errors in the data base regarding book rates. |
