Dan-Fu:
lol! You can pretty much chuck the plastic and put the actual cartridge piece in an envelope that has cardboard protecting it. That way I'd have to pay, what? Like 50 cents.
wiggy:
Prolly more like 1.50 since it'll be a parcel and not a letter.
Dan-Fu:
No, I've sent a NES board through the mail that way and the people at USPS didn't even care.  ;D
wiggy:
In a padded envelope?  Technically you CANNOT get letter rates for a parcel, and a padded envelope cannot qualify as a letter.

Either you got lucky, or the employees at your post office are especially stupid and careless.
Dan-Fu:
Well I've sent 10 pages through the mail, equivalent thickness to a nes game board in an envelope with pieces of cardboard on either side.
