......even though the third label was, like the first two, for a book under one pound.

Early this morning, I printed wrappers for two books.  Both of these books were well under one pound in weight.  With the $.19 DC fee (when did it increase from eighteen cents?) and the $.43 printable postage fee, the total amount subtracted from my account was $2.95 for each book.

Just a few minutes ago, I attempted to print another label using PBS printable postage for another book which is also well under a pound in weight.  However,  for this one, the total fee was $3.00.

I don't understand why this difference in cost.  All three books were under 1 pound, and I used PBS Printable Postage for all 3 books yet the third book was five cents more.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Jan

The postage rates went up today. You may have been charged the old rate for the first two and then the new rate for the last one.

Yes, I knew the postage rates increased today.  But when I printed the first two wrappers, the postage page CLEARLY stated my grand total was $2.95 each for those first two books.  I am positive of this because every time I mail a book, I keep a log with the title, date I mailed it, media rate or first class, and the TOTAL amount of the postage I was charged.  As I posted the $2.95 amount, I was thinking:  okay, the total for PBS Printable Postage (for under 1 pound) went up from $2.84 to $2.95.

However, I just now went to my Money Registry and it shows there that I was charged  $3.00 each for those two books.

I didn't imagine that it said $2.95 so it must have been some sort of glitch this morning.

I printed off 3 lables today, and each one was 3.00
