Are there restrictions on using Media Mail? Can you package it in a box or does it have to go in a certain kind of mailer?
I looked around a little at the USPS site but didn't see anything so I thought I'd ask here.

This is the only info I can find. But the way I understand it is that you can use anything as long as it fits the dimensions.

You just cannot take a priority mail box, flip it around and use it.
If the post office finds out at the counter, they will not let you send out the package unless you pay priority rate.
If you manage to get it by the counter but the receiving post office finds out, than they will charge postage due to the receiver of the item. I am sure the receiver will not be too happy.
