    has anyone else had a problem getting DC?

    So i went to a PO that i normally dont because i really needed to get something mailed, but at this place they got this measuring thing out and said that my bubble mailer wasnt thick anough, i gave my word to a guy that i would get DC. Has anyone else had to have their mailer so thick to get DC or was it just this PO. Or is it a new law.

    LMK thanks

    I have heard it several times although i use thin mailers and have never been stopped with it. I do print all my postage with paypal now though just in case. Nothing new though... They may have just started using it in your office though. Easy fix is put a packing peanut in there to get the width.... doesnt add any weight

    Yep happens to me every time i go to my P.O. to get DC. They stick it through this slot and if it can fit through the slot, its not thick enough to get DC. Stupid because all i do now is put paper towel in there lol. Adds basically no weight at all. thanx

    I moved this from Basketball Chat (a non-card forum) to General Sports Card Talk so it can get more views and replies.

    Bubble envelopes are supposed to be 3/4" thick to use DC. Some of the clerks let it go but it's supposed to be a national rule not regional or anything like that.
