My 1st time shipping a CD - priority mail or 1st class? HELP

carolinakiwi

I feel like a dummy asking this question.

I am planning on reusing one of those white plastic flimsy mailers to ship a CD.  I can do this, right?  Because I've received CD's in previously used mailers before.

Do you usually ship priority mail, or 1st class?

ETA: I was planning on using 1st class but am second guessing myself.

I usually use first class (it's cheaper and not much slower.) HTH

I ship first class with delivery confirmation.

Thanks!

It looks like it's going to charge me delivery confirmation.  It doesn't give me the option on the screen I'm on to either select or deselect delivery confirmation.

1st class unless it's over 13 ounces.  You need delivery confirmation if you're a seller and something goes wrong.  Paypal requires it for a dispute.

1st class. Almost as fast and way cheaper (ex: 1 grovia shell was $1.80 first class or $6 priority) and it got there in 2 or 3 days 1st class.

Other people have answered the first class/priority question, but I will add that you can definitely reuse mailers UNLESS you are trying to use a priority mail mailer (turned inside out or whatever) to send first class.  They don't allow that and it can lead to your buyer being charged postage due *even* if it is reused and not new.  But as long as it is a normal white poly mailer or yellow bubble mailer or something else that doesn't say "Priority Mail" you're fine!
