If it happens to me, I'll be sure to haul along a Q or a Fireside, to
demonstrate !

Subject: [Phono-L] Media Mail...
For those of us who have battled the US Postal Service there came a new
challenge today. I won a lot of Blue Amberols on eBay and they arrived
yesterday with a postcard note from my carrier to go to the main post
office as
there was postage due. That seemed odd since the seller had gone to great
lengths to calculate and charge correctly.
When I arrived at the post office I presented the young guy at the counter
with my postcard. He went in back and retrieved the box then told me I
owed
another $18.75 because they had opended the box after X-raying it and
there
were no records inside so it could not be MEDIA MAIL. So, I told him they
were Edison cylinder records. I asked if I could show him. He called
over
his supervisor. They allowed me to reach into the box and retrieve a
cylinder record. Both agreed that it was not a CD and not a record.
