Many of us send blocks in the mail and I'm am so irritated at how many have come back to me lately.
I hope this helps you! Let me know if there is a way to improve the instructions and I'll edit it with your input!
Thanks, Jami
That is due to the non-machineability of a mail piece.
As with any business, if product can be processed mechanically, it's more cost effective than needing to be all done by hand.
