stopwhining is right.
Media mail for a book between 4 and 5 pounds would be $3.10.
If it's between 5 and 6 pounds it would be $3.52 media mail.
The only problem is media mail can be a bit slow.

Ron: You might want to pick up a price folder from your p.o. I have one, several folds, sturdy paper, which I refer to when listing. It has the 1st class, priority rates, media mail rates, etc. etc. That won't help you with UPS and Fedex, but media mail is definitely the way to go for books and related items. ~Adele

media mail sometimes can be just as fast as first class mail,the dates you want to avoid is when they send out ss checks,they seem to drop everything going media or bulk so they can deliver ss checks.
