Hello All
Is a slow day (for me) so I was looking around and found this on a current eBay auction. I don’t have any heartburn with it. I just thought was rather funny, but I would not do this would you?

Hi Dacreson, I am just wondering if it is just this one particular post office or is it The Federal Post office rule. I do not ship media, I have no reason to, but I am under the impression it is for printed matter,(stamps are printed) I am also under the impression it is not to entail any advertising I think, but if other post offices accept stamps as media and this one does not, and this was the most convenient for me and my shipping, I would be upset also. Maybe that was put in in his description because so many buyers were asking to have their order shipped media, instead of the more expensive way.
Slow for me too.

Stamps would be a gray area probably - How do they know what you are shipping? I tend to only ship books, CD's, DVD's, VHS that rate, but they don't know what I am shipping.
