Magazines do not qualify for Media Mail due to the advertisement - no matter how old the magazines are.
Here is the link to check price per lb. to mail Media Mail.

Have not had the chance to try this yet, has anyone? With all the books and magazines that get sold on here, thought we could give this a try.
