Shipping Cologne?

I recently sold a bottle of cologne on EBay. When I went to the Post Office to ship it, the worker asked me if I had anything liquid, flammable or fragile..like they always do.

I said I was shipping cologne..they absolutely would not let me mail it...at least Priority. She said, I could maybe do parcel post, if I could find out the 'flash temp' of it, and state that on the package, and it had to be labeled with a particular 'code'..I did not know this!

I've purchased cologne from EBay, and it just comes in mail, in a box, with no markings...most of the listings for perfume/cologne also state, 'Priority Mail'..how do they do it, if the Postal Service will not allow it? Do they just not tell the postal worker what's in it? I had to give refunds because I just didn't want to go through the hassle..guess I need to pay more attention to rules and restrictions!
Hope this saves someone else from the frustration!

You are not supposed to have any flammable liquids on an airplane so that is why you can't ship it Priority Mail. Most of the ones I get are sent Fed Ex or UPS Ground with no problem.
