Never had a problem with Media Mail, sending or receiving. I think the longest it ever took either way was 6 days.

Go back there and tell them you took the invoice out.

EDIT: Although this could be considered mail fraud, which is a federal offense.

No big deal. What 20 years in a federal Bubba slammer?

Ha! of course you can put paper in there, it's "media". Retail operations use MM all the time.

The clerk didn't know the rules. Not the first time...


Okay, if I write a letter on paper...is that media mail?

Whether it is or not, you'd be stupid for paying a media mail rate when an envelope with 37 cent stamp would do it 😉

But why by adding a piece of paper into a media mail package does that require first-class postage for the entire package?

it shouldn't, and if you had read my earlier post in this thread you would know why 😉
 
never ship media mail unless it's something that is junk and useless.
1st class is the way to go! cheap and fastest.
 
Does Media Mail use camels and or horse & buggies to transport your item?
