rates in red are less, or about as, expensive than 1-lb Media Mail rate

1 – 3 ounces…………………………$2.54.  $2.04 with Printable Postage
Between 3 and 4 ounces…………………………2.74...$2.13 with Printable Postage
Between 4 and 5 ounces…………………………2.94.. $2.22 with Printable Postage
Between 5 and 6 ounces……………………….3.14 .. $2.35 with Printable Postage

[First Class Parcel rate does not exist above 13 ounces – above that weight, you must use Priority Mail]

See the complete USPS list of prices here.

If your package weighs 4 ounces or less and you are NOT using Printable Postage, First-Class rate will be about the same cost or less expensive than Media Mail rate, so First Class Postage will print out by default for packages up to 4 ounces being sent without Printable Postage.  If you use Printable Postage, the "cutoff" is 8 ounces – so **if you use Printable Postage and your (wrapped) package weighs up to 8 ounces, First Class Postage will print out by default on the PBS wrapper.

Please Note: Postage for First Class and Media Mail rate is determined by package weight.  MediaMail and First Class postal rates do not depend on distance–it will cost the same to send a package to any address served by USPS* (including AK, HI, PR, GU, US Virgin Islands and APO/FPO/DPO addresses) using either First Class or Media Mail.

*There is an exception for members who live in the Federated States of Micronesia – those members will NOT be able to use Media Mail to mail OUT books.  They will be able to accept books mailed with Media Mail rate.  Media Mail cannot be used to mail FROM the FSM, but it can be used to mail TO the FSM.
