FoxBeHungry Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Does anyone ship to CGC using USPS Media Mail? Some of the comics I want to send are more sentimentally valuable than financially valuable and was thinking USPS Media Mail was a good option. Probably even with pressing, no more than a 7.0. Getting comics look to be cheaper to slab than buy some of those fancy frames that are out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drotto Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 It has been stated multiple times by the postal service that using Media Mail for comics is technically illegal. This is primarily because the books contain ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpineTic Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 USPS treats media worse than junk mail. If you want your books treated like worthless trash then send them media mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Media Mail is the bottom priority when it comes to getting shipped around, so it may stay at various locations for a few days until there is room on the truck.

FoxBeHungry Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 thanks all for the replies. good info. what about comics with no ads like Bad Idea Books or Kickstarter Comics? those usually don’t have ads. Just to be safe, I’ll probably just stick with FedEx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
