Sending baseballs TTM

Can someone help me with the protocol for sending baseballs TTM? Obviously I'd have to send two boxes, but do I send a pen as well? And how do I ensure that the signer tapes up the box for the return trip? Should I send a roll of tape as well? I know these are probably dumb questions but any help woul be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    They make bubble mailers big enough for baseballs? Where would I find them? Thanks!

    If you have a Sams nearby they have 6x9 mailers for $4.82 for 25. They have the bigger ones too, but I don't know the cost on them. Good luck!

    Chris, I concur with everything above. If you're sending to HOFers, make sure to check out pricing for their signatures on StarTiger or another site so you don't waste postage and mailers. Actually, someone must have a spreadsheet of that stuff somewhere - it would be very helpful. If not, maybe I can work with someone to create one.
