OT: Bubble Mailers

I am looking to buy some bubble mailers. Does anyone know if royalmailers.com, valuemailers.com, bubblemailers.com, esupplystore.com, or any other website has any coupons codes that are valid to reduce the overall cost? I know some of you have purchased on eBay. What are everyone favorite sellers?

Looking forward to your responses.

    Historically, Royal has offered a CU discount. Give them
    a call or email; they are pleasant to deal with.

  • I can get a single PSA card in a #000 (approx. 4 x 7) with a little extra bubble wrap to protect it better. Never had a problem doing that.

    Storm: Thanks for the info

    I have always bought from these people on ebay. They ship fast and their prices are pretty good. They also sell boxes and other shipping items so I get everything I need at one place, plus they combine shipping charges.

    I will have to checkout Royal next time, I wasn't aware of a CU discount.

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

    One point to ponder:

    I used to use #000 mailers for PSA cards, and would wrap each card in a 12" strip of bubble wrap before inserting it into the mailer. When I used this method approximately 5% of all the slabs I sent out were cracked by the post office. There are board members here, like Kevin and Adam, who can attest to the fact that they received well-protected cards from me that were damaged in transit.

    Now I use a #00 mailer, wrap each slab in 24" of bubble wrap, and so far (knock on wood) I haven't had a problem. Given my experience, I would seriously recommend that anyone using a #000 mailer with a single footlong piece of bubble wrap protecting the card reconsider their shipping practices.

    Does anyone happen to have the CU discount code for Royal Mailers? I contacted them but they have not responded.

    Thanks.

    I have always used valuemailers. they ship fast and have great prices

    I use a #000 with a piece of cardboard on each side of the slab and have only had one slab damaged out of thousands. for a little more protection you can also go with a #00 with extra bubble wrap and cardboard. these also work for tallboys

    Haven't had much luck buying bubble mailers. Royal Mailers security certificate is expired so my computer warns me against logging in on their site. None of the coupon codes work, including Facebook. I tried Uline but they want $35 for shipping! Royal is the cheapest but I'll have to wait until Tuesday to call and place an order. Has anyone else ordered #00 mailers recently and where did you buy them from?

    Thanks.

    Thanks. They came up with a $72 estimate to ship two cases of 00 Mailers to CA. Does that sound right?
