It would be a flat parcel. It looks like it is going up to $1.95 for a bubble mailer under 3 oz.

eBay is charging it as a parcel which is technically correct for a bubble mailer. Sounds like your post office is charging it as a large envelope instead of a parcel. Sometimes if the bubble mailer is thin enough you can get by with just shipping it as a large envelope...they also don't require a customs form on something shipped as a large envelope.

They still require customs forms on them, but thanks, didn't realize that they were treating it as a large envelope.
