Shipping Graded Cards

Where to find the cheapest bubble mailer envelopes to purchase in bulk (about 200 of them.) Do any of you guys know the best websites to buy them from and if any of them offer free shipping? What I am finding is the envelope prixes are decent, but they hit you with high S/H charges. Of course, it still is much cheaper than buyig them 5 at a time from Walmart or an office supply store.

Thanks in advance.

    I just bought this and was happy with my purchase.
    They were fast and it averaged out at about .17 cents a piece with shipping.
    They also have other quantities and sizes.
  • I agree with above post. That is where I get mine. They ship pretty quick and are decent padded mailers.

    They have a funny EBAY ID.
  • Thanks Brian. JUst checked it out and they seem to have great prices.
  • Brian- are you using them to ship cards and/or dvds? I have some DVD's I would like to sell and wonder if they would fit into the size you purchased. Looks like it may be a tight fit for DVDs. I assume they fit b/c it says for DVDs in the title.
  • DVDs will fit in the "0" size but are very tight.

    I use them to ship cards.....usually 2 or more PSA slabs with cardboard padding.
    6 X 10 works perfectly for that. 4 X 8 works for 1 PSA slab with cardboard padding.

    I use www.valuemailers.com. They make a good quality bubble mailer. Nice and stiff. Alot of people like Royal Mailers, and I have bought from them as well, but I found their mailers to be a little flimsier and cheaper than I like. With the money being equal, Value Mailers makes a better quality product.

    This is who I buy my padded mailers off of. I used to used a guy in Florida named Parrothead88 if i recall. He just up and vanished though

    I agree with Bobby, valuemailers is the best and competitively priced as well. They also sell on ebay and sometimes you can get them on there cheaper than their web site.
  • BTW, I am not a fan of the cardboard "padding". I have had two cards within the last two months sent this way that came cracked. One, completely broke in half and made a crease down the entire card where the broken case dug into the card.

    I believe wrapping in bubble wrap and placing in bubble mailer is much safer for cards and should completely protect them from damage.
