chutterhanban Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I searched for awhile to see there isn't a general thread for shipping questions--just a bunch of one time questions with a one time answer. Maybe it's for the better? Who knows? Either way, here's my question: I printed out (and paid for) a shipping label straight from PayPal. It's attached to the mailer, paid for, and ready to go. Do I still have to take it to a post office or can I just take it to the blue USPS drop boxes on sidewalks? Sorry for the simple dumb question! Feel free to continue using this thread for general shipping questions/answers. Hopefully I can count on Shitty Rambo to merge this if one already exists...

jeremybentham Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Rule is over 13oz = no box. THAT SAID....... I do it all the time, never had any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebistro Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I give them directly to my mailman sometimes. Other times I take them to the bigger post office by me because there's a box on the counter I can just leave it in. I never take it to my smaller post office because if I short the weight by a few ounces they charge me for stamps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a mailman and I don't want to go to the post office lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amnstypls Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Well, one way to surely avoid the post office would be to not sell records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somethingvinyl Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 If you look on the USPS website you can schedule a pick up from the mailman. I think you have to select it's a priority package or something like that but they still come even if it's medial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
