Hi I'm new and ready to offload a bunch of really old PC games. They're so old, in fact, they came in the big 12" x 10" x 1" boxes that all PC games used to be in, before they moved to the DVD-size boxes. Obviously, I can't really cram that into a bubble mailer. Anyone have any tips on how to cheaply ship these?
You flatten them so their not so bulky. I think they would fit those flat rate priority envelops(the hard ones).
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
I have a better idea! Open up a paper grocery bag and wrap the box in it like a present. I always sent out my PC games like this.

Or you could send as disc only.
He'll get more matches if he can go complete in box though.
I have gotten larger bubble mailers for those size boxes.
As an aside, does anyone remember the lament when they were switching away from those boxes.

So ... are you padding your post count or just being stupid?

Yes, I do. I remember the first time I saw one of the 'new' smaller boxes. Talking to my friend about how that's kind of cool because it'll help it stand out (I thought it was just a gimmick box), then my buddy who worked at Future Shop came over and explained that they were all going that way. Retarded as it is, in hindsight, I remember being enraged, and grabbing a copy of something off the shelf and asking how they expected to make triangle boxes in this new small size, and still fit everything inside.
Much like PieMonster said wrap them present style in a grocery bag. I sent one by wrapping it in wrapping paper, with the white side out, although the decorative side would have been a lot funnier.
