the franking machine bursts them out if your unlucky, better to put on a pecil and tape to inside of padded envelope as it also stops them getting sqaushed with franker ;) ;)

Yes---Us ring collectors have several torned open--or lost in the system.  More than you would think do not ever arive. We have to fill out a Custon form to mail outside the USA. If we put "Pigeon" rings--they think of bird flu and destory it. Also the word "rings" they may think of jewelry and it may go in a pocket. For contents I put tubing samples or marker bands

We use padded envelopes and it still happens more times than we like.

 

Folks--its a cruel  world we are living in.

tape the rings on a pencil and celotape it to inside of envelope if they dissapear then theve been nicked ;)

perhaps the tissue paper made it thicker. i sent a book out recently and it would've fitted through the 'large letter' slot...but sent it as a parcel...cost£1-30 which i thought wasn't bad as 1st class is 40p odd. i think its odd rings would make a letter to thick

but if you just put a normal first class on its not enough for a large letter and the little templates for sizes are only at post offices no good if using pillar box,the mail has gone right downhill since it became insignia or whatever its called
