Media Mail
Hi I'm selling a Game Day program from a sporting event. I'm not being given the option to send it via Media Mail? What am I missing? Item NUmber 116845569395 if that is needed.

Mentor10 months agoHi @andybrown82
What your missing is that Media Mail is for shipping ONLY educational materials … without advertising in them.
For example, books can be shipped via Media Mail; magazines can not.

Mentor10 months agoYou ae not listing the item in a category that allows for Media Mail. Only the Books category allows for the Media Mail shipping option. This is because of the strict requirements for Media Mail shipping by the USPS.
If the program contains any advertising then it does not qualify for Media Mail shipping. You would have to purchase the shipping label outside of eBay from either the USPS website or a site like Pirate Ship which offers the same discount as eBay gives.

A full-page advertisement for Coca-Cola.
Advertisements disqualify printed materials from being sent by Media Mail.
Magazines do not meet the USPS requirements for Media Mail because they normally contain advertising.
