As I said, I don't mind paying so long as the price is reasonably low, however I wouldn't want a situation where people in the us had something for free while everyone else had to pay a huge great postage charge. Beware the grue! Dark. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you

Hi Jeremy, No, your information/understanding is incorrect. While a blind person can use free matter for the blind on some mail its only for specific cases. For instance, if the Library of Congress sends me a book in braille or a book on audio tape I have the right, as a blind individual, to

Hi Dark, Don't worry about that. As I just got done explaining in my prior post the free matter for the blind service doesn't work the way he thinks it does. The free matter service is specifically for non-profit use between an organization or agency and a blind individual. It doesn't give a

Hi Dark, Yes, that's my understanding of the U.S. free matter for the blind service as well. It only applies to braille books, braille news letters, audio tapes, and sometimes to something like a talking book player or similar specialized device. I'm not at all sure what Jeremy wants to send via

Hi Trouble, Yeah, I noticed that as well. There doesn't seem to be any official ruling on weather a package is to be sealed or not sealed. I guess that is why most of the stuff I get free matter is usually in some sort of special container that can be easily opened and closed. Tapes come in those
