    Thumbs up Want to ship 5000 Tokens or Spheres for $11.00?

    Hi All,

    I have found a way to mail up to 5000 Spheres or Tokens in a USPS flat rate box for around $9.00 - $11.00 cost for shipping without / with tracking. These two boxes can be had from the Post office for free.

    I put 1000 Tokens in a zip lock bag and put it into each of the 5 smaller boxes. For strength I used Duct tape to seal these smaller boxes on all four corners. Then the 5 smaller boxes are put into the Flat Rate box, fill the gap with newspaper and I close the box and tape it shut including tape on all four corners.

    There is no weight limit on the Flat Rate box. If you can get it into it and the box keeps it's shape. It ships. I have also sent 5000 Pachinko balls this way. That box weighed in at 61 pounds and cost me around $10.00 to ship.

    You should have seen the Postal Clerk when she went to lift the box off the scale.

    USPS web site the boxes can be found at:
    Product: Priority Mail Large Video Box (O-1096L)

    Flat Rate Box - Product: Priority Mail Box Flat Rate Box-O-FRB1

    they also have a larger flat rate box now, 12" by 12" by 6"

    shipping is 12.49 in US and 10.99 to APO

    you can order any Priority mail boxes for free on the USPS web site. no shipping charge either.

    I order them by the case and usually get them in a week.
