Last week I received from the pressing plant the latest cd on my little label (no lps yet, but that is something I'd like to pursue.) I rushed to mail review copies before the rates went up, but had I some more to mail on Monday. I expected the 2 cents an ounce increase, but new regulations now say that flexible envelopes (like those containing a cd) can't be mailed at the letter rate but must go parcel post. The end result was to almost double my mailing cost. Yikes indeed!!!!

Thank you Allen, I hope you are right, but I believe they've done away with letter air mail, it's all parcel post. (nt) - jdaniel 20:02:23 05/17/07 (0)
