After selecting small to med items, you can select first class (letter or large envelope) for a plain envelope, then you use stamps or pay at your PO. There is no tracking, so there is no label to print and you will have to refund if the buyer says not received.

A bubble mailer is always going to be usps ground - you can not send one as a letter or large envelope.

If you don't see first class in the list of services, type first in the search box and you should be able to select it.

Some paper items can be sent using the standard envelope - see the eligible items here -
