[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 245809, member: 51"]They "think"....? Better get confirmation. Honestly with all the shipping I do, sometimes I think we know more than the postal clerks nowadays. I would check because you don't want something getting hung up in customs. Disclaimer: I've never shipped International w/envelopes. So if it used to be 1 sheet, wondering if possibly it has changed. Quick story: Had a shipment going to Japan in a small box a few months ago. Had quoted International First Class. Item sold at $438, and Ebay shipping directed me to Priority Shipping because First Class is only used for $400 and below. Could it be the value of the item? Did you print it out on Ebay? Not that I have complete faith in Ebay, but the shipping seems to just automatically do the right thing. Perhaps if rules have changed, that is what is going on. You could try the USPS 800 number, but get your speaker phone and be ready to be on hold. My only concern is that if it printed 4 sheets, you can't just use 1 of the 4, you would need an entirely new label. (I think...)[/QUOTE]
