I saw where someone had a puzzle and was posting they would mail it media mail. Is it correct that a puzzle can be shipped this way or no?

According to USPS they do NOT qualify for media mail.

Absolutely not, it is in the name, ‘MEDIA’ (as long as there are no advertisements). I see a lot of comic book sellers do the same thing and once again, not allowed. But, many sellers do charge higher prices for shipping and then ship the cheapest they can get away with to make extra money on the shipping, sneaky tactic but 90% do it. Now, USPS does have the right to open and inspect all media mail packages and if not allowed they will charge the receiver the extra postage, just be sure to get that refunded from the seller or if they refuse then file a claim.

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
