I'm going through listings to make sure everything matches my spreadsheets -- a part of figuring out what I need to retake pictures for since I lost a hundred or more pictures. In the process, I came across flat rates I have set for the jigsaw puzzles in my eCrater store (the backup price if calculated isn't working) and had the thought that they might be eligible for Media Mail. Does anyone know if jigsaw puzzles are eligible? I looked on the USPS site and this is all it says: - Perfect for sending books and educational materials.
- The material sent must be educational media. Video games, computer drives, or digital drives of any kind are not items qualified for mailing at Media Mail prices.
Would jigsaw puzzles be educational material? LOL

I do not believe that they are, Nicole. Jigsaw puzzles would not be educational material.

Aawwww shucky darns! LOL I don't know why I was thinking they'd be eligible, but oh well. I had to ask just to be sure. I usually don't ship stuff via Media Mail since most of the books I sell can ship via First-Class for less or close to the same price. However, I'll be combining some books that are part of a series, so they'll ship via Media Mail -- when I get around to listing books, that is.
About the retakes I need to do, I did find some products that I already have pictures for, but there are still several that I can't find them for. I'd say out of all that I had on my list to check, more than half are still missing pictures. More than half of what is missing was already boxed up and put in storage, which I brought home yesterday. I had to bring several home just because I didn't have the box dimensions and, like a dummy, I forgot to bring the tape measure with me.
What's funny is that after going to storage to get them and sorting through everything once I got them home, I found out that I made a small sale on Etsy. I brought more than two dozen boxes home, but, of course, it didn't include the one for the item I sold. LOL So I had to go back to storage this morning to get it. If I would have just waited a little bit longer before going to storage, I could have gotten it the first time around.

No. But I know they do keep the brain active and your fingers busy.

...and they work well to reprogram my equilibrium when it goes haywire, but that's a medical use. LOL

Etsy has been slow for me but it is that time of the year. Yeah, and you won't believe what it was that I sold...the smaller pair of 6in ceramic jack-o-lanterns that you can use on your porch for Halloween with tea light candles. I guess they're getting ready early this year. LOL

Well, I got everything that was boxed up photographed. There are still several items I have in bins here that I need to retake photos of, but I'll worry about those later. I just wanted to get these ones back to storage so I can organize everything in storage now that I have several new things to add of my aunt's stuff. I've got so many products in there now that I've had to resort to numbering the shelves and make note of the shelf each product is on so I can easily find it when it sells. I was planning on taking everything back tonight, but I was expecting the truck to be available for use two hours ago. Unfortunately, it's not home, yet, and the gate to the facility locks at 10p, so it's too late now. I'll get it done tomorrow night. Tomorrow during the day, I'll get to editing all of the photos and things listed.
