This weekend I picked up a book at a thrift store and then noticed that it has a remainder mark on the bottom of it.  Is this postable?  I saw a post the other day where someone had a book with a name written on the side opposite the spine and an email response from PBS said this would be like an ex-library book having markings and that it was OK.  Would remainder marks fall in this category too and be OK, or would they fall under the "No marks or writing" rule?  If it makes any difference, the mark is about two inches long.

Books with remainder marks are  postable.

Definitely allowed :)

OK, thanks!

Ashley,

I can't tell you how confused I get when I see one of your posts. lol

My name is also Ashley plus my middle name startes with an L! ; ) It's like see another me floating around in the internet world. ; )

That said I'm reading a lot of your posts wondering when I posted it. ; ) lol

from one Ashley to another

What is a remainder mark FOR? I know what they are, but why are they there?

Books with remainder marks are  postable, though I cringe everytime I see one. It just bothers me  to see a book defaced like that.
