- bluGill 2y agoThat mail comes with rules. It presorted and so even though it is a lot cheaper to mail for them, because everything is in order there is a lot less work for the mail system and so they still make money on it in general.
- teraflop 2y agoNo, that's wrong. The media mail rate is for books and other similar media, and it specifically may not be used for advertising.
- flymasterv 2y agoThat’s not what media mail is. Media mail cannot contain advertising.
