Cheapest site for shipping supplies
 

Ive been purchasing boxes from Uline.com for the past couple orders. I thought they were the cheapest but i found out that shippingsupply.com is much cheaper. Anyone know a site thats cheaper than them?

I have and will always buy from ebay sellers for my shipping needs. I have never been able to find cheaper packaging then on ⊗⊗⊗⊗bay oops ebay.

I like pkging.com for boxes. Everything else I buy on eBay.

Ebay is by far the cheapest. I did use papermart.com for awhile though.

Not sure how you guys think Eb*y is the cheapest because i just looked for many supplies and they are definately not cheaper than shippingsupply.com

Well for example. On shippingsupply.com 1000 of the #1 padded mailers is $189.50 plus shipping which according to the site would be $118.50 to my house. That would be $308 delivered. I can get the same thing on Ebay for $179 with free shipping.

I guess it depends on what you buy. I was only looking at boxes. And shipping seems free on them. $28 for a 100 boxes free shipping sounds like a REALLY good deal to me.

What size of boxes are you buying?

I am not from the US so maybe I am mistaken, but aren't USPS giving free shipping boxes?

I first started off with Walmart boxes (.69) per box. Found Uline.com (.37) I think? per box. Shipping supplies seems to be cheaper!! :o Then again, Uline warehouse is like 15 minutes from my house (: I'll look into this site ;D

So, for 200 8x8x4 here is my results

Shipping Supplies:
57.36 for boxes + 48.30 for shipping = 105.66
Uline:
76.00 for boxes + 29.10 for shipping = 105.10

Not sure the shipping speed for Shipping Supplies, but with Uline, I get it the next day.

They do give out free boxes but that is only for Priority Mail which is the most expensive way to ship a item with the USPS. So depending on what you sell most of the time it isn't the most cost effective route to go.

I buy the same exact boxes and my total for 100 boxes came up to $28.68+22.14 shipping. Total of : 50.82

On uline as far as i remember the same exact order came up to being $87

If you look locally - you can get even lower prices. Look around on craigslist or on kijiji. I found a supplier who was selling it for 50% cheaper than uline. In Canada's its especially harder to find cheap shipping supplies - due to expensive shipping costs.

Has anyone heard of Bubble Mailers / Padded Envelopes / Save 20 to 75%

Good prices, might give them a try.

WOW,the price even cheaper than in china a bit.

It all depends on the items you buy, the sizes, and quantity. Here is a solid list:

Loophole, when I ordered from them they had free shipping and there warehouse is in NY. Or at least that is where it came from when I ordered it. The shipping is super fast to depending on what you order, usually 3-5 business days.

Bubble mailers are cheap on Amazon, that's where I buy

Bubble mailers are about $10-20 cheaper on ebay than valuemailers. Although we I need to purchase lots of different items I buy from valumailers for the convenience.

e4bay... poly envelopes 250 for $12

and sadly... walmart for bubblewrap $16 for the big one

Either valuemailers and I also found that HMHM amazon had actually the lowest price for what I was looking for. Nice a stealth buying from amazon to sell LOL:doh:

Do not know if this helps u or not, but USPS has bubble wrap mailers (Priority Flat Envelopes). Much better then their other Priority envelopes. I order 100 at a time. They are slightly more expensive --- 4.95 as opposed to 4.75 --- to mail. These are nice bubble wrap mailers, and as always ---delivered to your door free of charge.

I ship them at the same as regular nobody has ever said anything different.

I use https://boxgiver.com/. They have free shipping boxes, bubble wrap, and packing paper. I know people post on there a lot and give their packing supplies away. Hope that helps!
