Make sure you put the correct postage on these! : ) I have received a few with postage due.

Ok, define not rectangular....I have standard size cards with 1 scalloped edge, almost square, panoramic, etc. Are any of those acceptable?

choke 01/16/2012 #

I wouls say the scalloped edge would be ok, but no on the square or panoramic (I think panoramic is just a longer rectangle?).

@susieq11 - I was not aware they need more postage? Are they 44c? (Or soon to be 45c anyway...)

susieq11 01/16/2012 #

Round and square are 64 cents and some larger sized ones are 86 cents or so b/ c they are considered large envelope size.

Ah gotcha, I think...a card with one edge non-straight (like the picture), can it go the postcard rate if it's no bigger than 4"x6"? I tried looking on usps.com but no luck :/
