[Dx-qsl] Follow Up: 1/4 inch thickness and postage rates for US Buro Mgrs

[Tim Goeppinger]

Thanks to Scott and Guillermo for the responses.  Thanks for the link, Scott - that reminded me of the 3.5 oz rate.

I am not here to debate the policies of the 6th area buro.  I am merely trying to provide
them a tool if they choose to use it.  I think my friends shipment was wisely spilt because
8 oz of cards would be close to bursting the seams of a #35 envelope.  A 6 X 9 is not an
option in the 6th area.

Non machine charge does not apply here because I am already accounting for the 1/4
inch thickness because it already bumps  the shipment into the Package category.

Here is my revised table for US buros that ship in a smaller envelope in a single stack:
