    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Where do you guys get your boxes for shipping? I've been shopping around and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.
 
Superior Enterprise is good

We use Superior Enterprise. I like the free shipping on orders of $50 plus. I found their prices to be less than most and the order gets sent quite quickly (within a couple days).

Yes with enterprise

I order one day and I get mine the very next day, customer service is great as well. The same with Wendy at Scales. I have never had any problem with either company when shipping these boxes purchased from them! :)

Agreed

I will go along with all the above.
Actually, Scales is local to me and I am over there weekly for crickets:) Both Daniel and Wendy are great to deal with.
 
Do you think $3-$4 is expensive for just one insulated box? Would it be cheaper to cut the styrofoam yourself and put it in a box that is only 80 cents? Or is that a real big hassle and worth the extra money?
 
If your shipping just one box, once in a great while then it's much more cost effective (if you can find a local source) to build your own.

If your shipping on a regular basis then you can buy in bulk (lowering the price per box especially where shipping is concerned) and the savings in time and the confidence your customer feels when receiving a professional looking box is worth the expense.
