Extra time
The extra 50 minutes of your time going to the post office, plus the cost of mileage on your car is substantial. The IRS allows businesses a deduction of 56 cents per mile driven.
You're a nice guy to only ask for the $1.34 in postage reimbursed. For me, I regularly go to the post office for business mailouts at least once a week so it would not be as much of a hassle as you went through. This week I sent a card back to a seller when he sent me the wrong one. No biggie, just an honest mistake.
