Went to fedex and ups the other day to ship plastic they wanted $100:eek: . I had the box as small as I could make it. Does any one have any pics of the boxes they used to ship plastic. Is there any way that you dont have to put them in a box?

I just wrapped them in bubble wrap,then shrunk wrapped them,and taped them up.It usually cost me 65 I think for a full set of Fullbores.

I can make the box any smaller so I dont think I have any other choices except the bubble wrap. Do you guys think that would be much cheaper?

Ive shipped two sets of plastic. Thats the norm Im afraid :(

I would make sure and ship them in a box though so that they dont get beat up, seems like these days UPS doenst give a crap how they deliver your parcels :ermm:
