A question on how to mail something

[JohnTBap]

I need to mail some DVDs. Do you think one of those bubble wrap envelopes would be sufficent, or should I use a box?

 

[shep]

Bubble wrap envelopes should be sufficient unless you're mailing it to me, then i'd expect it to be in a box...

I want mine in a box with a lot of bubble wrap for the boys.

Actually I think if you wrap bubble wrap around it and then put it in a evelope it should be all right. Of course you could ask the postel clerk at the post office.

It's actually got two parts to the trip. It's leaving Houston and going to Chicago where it will shed its outer layer and then travel to its final destination. I wonder if I should put a bubble envelope in a box and then for the second leg just the envelope would work.

I promise I haven't been drinking.........

This doesn't involve any psycho stalking, does it!

Dont forget to use Media Mail, unless its a rush item.. its cheaper, and you will get there almost as fast as first class.

Now now Saffron. If it involved psycho stalking, would I post aboot it here?? hehehe

What is media mail?

 

[LuvN~Travel]

Media mail is the category that used to be 'book mail'.
It includes books, cds, films, tapes, records, etc. It is a
cheaper form of 'standard' mail. And, most of my customers
just use the padded envelopes to mail their cds. Personally,
I'd put it in a padded envelope with bubble wrap or stiff
cardboard around it as well. Hope this helps.
