    How To Pack Your Books For Shipping - by Boozad

    in Newbie Comic Collecting Questions

    Posted

    For you guys that keep wanting to charge me $10-13 to ship a single HG comic in a box.

     

    These are the smaller and lighter weight priority boxes - you can ship 1-2 comics in them and get the box below 1 pound in weight for cheaper postage - $5.50 throughout the U.S.

     

    There is plenty of room in them to adequately protect comics.

     

    1097 Priority Boxes

     

    I just ordered another crate of 25.

     

    My P.O. does not stock them - I can only get them (for free) from usps.com

     

     

    This sounds great for shipping 1-2 less expensive books.

     

    My question is how would you advise packing the comics in this box to keep the weight below one pound without putting the comics at risk of getting damaged (materials, etc.)?

     

    Thanks in advance.

     

    Also, thanks to everyone that has contributed to this great thread.
