Maxi letters in detail: Everything about size, weight and price
The maximum dimensions and the maximum weight of the standard Maxi letter do not differ from book and merchandise shipments. As a result, it is not immediately obvious at first glance why the Maxi letter is more expensive. However, the reason for this lies in the details: the books and consignment is intended to be a particularly inexpensive option for sending books and other specific goods privately or commercially. These include, for example, items of clothing, samples and electrical parts. Accordingly, the book and merchandise shipment must also be marked as such (usually with the abbreviation "BÜWA").
