Sorry buttercup. You relied on that govt agency, USPS, and they are dumb
as bricks. They did raise the weight limit from 13 oz to under 16 oz for
first class mail. That happened almost a year ago, but the USPS website
apparently doesn't reflect it. Like you found, they say 13 oz. I also
tried using the shipping calculator there, and it won't allow first class
for anything over 13 oz. However, if you do some googling, you will see
I'm correct. Try the Ebay shipping calculator, it takes 15.99 and that
is what I have used to ship stuff over 13 oz with no problems.

Apparently the only ones that don't know it are the incompetents running the
USPS website. ROFL. But are you surprised?
