Media Mail!!??

I have sent several items(games) via media mail previously, with no problems. But the one time I sent shaggy some stuff via media mail, I got the same issue you did

Maybe shaggy's local post office is a stickler for this sort of thing. 

Either way, I think you are going to get a different answer from most post offices on the matter

What had happened is he sent it in a priority mail box you get from the post office but he turned it inside out.  I assume they suspected this and they opened the box and saw it was a priority mail box so they charged priority shipping.

Either way, your post office = stinky do do heads

I've heard different things from different people regarding Media Mail, so I only use it when it is specifically asked for.  Otherwise I just ship first class.  It is a little more expensive, but it gets there much faster and there aren't any retrictions on it as far as I know.

yeah i got into it with my local post office drop off attendant. i had games to mail and charged enough shipping to pay for media mail and not parcel post, that would have been out of pocket. she said that it was on a memo sent around but failed to produce said memo. i told her that i had never had a problem shipping games via media mail. she just mutters that i am lucky i havent gotten caught. even the little flyer at the counter that describes media mail doesnt even say anything about games. medai mail does allow computer readable media. whats a game console..... a computer of sorts. making a game a computer readable media. saying this to my posta attendant gets my games shipped media mail when before she wouldnt allow me to ship them media. even online it says nothing about video games and media mail. i think its all bullshit. games are media.

That's what I say.  Console are like computers and the games are media content on them.
