it isn't too high...I would love to put it in a regular envalope, which I did...It is the thickness that makes the postage not go thru as regular mail there fore the price ranges from 2.05 to 2.65 depending on the weight. I do however have a postal scale and that is what is calculated price...so do the math check it out before you make comments in my auctions...and be right not wrong next time. I am only fair in what I do, and obviously I don't need your help.
