TIME SAVING tip - PACK your shipping/ mailing box FIRST

Before posting an item to okay, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A SHIPPING
BOX. If not, you could spend many hours running around town
looking for the correct sized box, or you could get a box that's too
big and either waste time cutting it down or waste money on excess packing material / postage.

When selling a bulk lot, FILL THE BOX FIRST. Put together a pile
of similar items and place them in the box. Whatever fits in that
box, consider making that your bulk lot. Be sure to leave room
for safe packaging material, especially if the item is fragile or
condition sensitive.

The USPS Flat Rate Priority Boxes work especially well for this.
There are two sizes and each will hold a surprising number of
goodies. At the time of this writingl, they will ship for $7.70
in the USA (plus
45 cents for delivery confirmation). This rate is good for up to
70 POUNDS, and begees cost effective for anything heavier than 2
pounds. Even if you don't normally
mail USPS, it's worthwhile to get some flat rate boxes and see what you
can fit
inside.

If you use Flat Rate Priority Boxes, keep a few similar size blank
boxes, just in case the lot is purchased by an international
bidder. In some cases, shipping international can cost
significantly more so it's a good idea to warn the bidders. Good luck!
