I've mailed three so far, and didn't use envelopes. The postal employees
had not see these before. They charged me regular, first class postage, not
postage for a Post Card. They also said that they could not be hand
cancelled. Mine had ribbons and buttons and were received in good
condition.

Ok, I had to look this one up. I know that they technically fall
within postal regulations, but I still have to wonder what the postal
workers think about them, and what effect, if any, they may have on
sorting & handling equipment over time (lint?)
Just musing - that's all! :-)
