I think the CD Jewel case will be too bulky. If you're going pack a
small GPM Mailer with CD/DVDs, then you can't put them in cases. Also,
the USPS doesn't like you to overstuff those mailers until the seams
are bursting.
I agree.....buy a small postal scale. I have one, and it saves alot of
time and helps with listing auctions. If you know the true weight of
an item, then you can get a better estimate of shipping costs.
