Anyone know where I can buy a lot of these in bulk for cheap? I’m talking about boxes where I can pack 15-20 DVDs in each one. I tried Amazon, but they’re selling for about $50 for 50 boxes and the capacity is 6 DVDs. Too pricey and not enough bang for my buck.

I think that Amazon price is about as good as you're going to get for a bulk order for a specialty mailing box like that. Or you could take a look at these: www.sleevecityusa.com/cd-dvd-mailers-s/1876.htmI've had great experiences as a customer with Sleeve City before so I'd recommend them as a company.

I'd suggest instead of going the route of specialty boxes for 10-20 at a time to just buy a roll of bubble wrap and send everything through flat-rate boxes instead.
Unless there is a specific reason for presentation purposes to send things in specialty boxes (ie selling something), you're wasting money IMO.

Thanks for the link, but it looks like those are for unpackaged discs. I sell new DVDs still in their boxes and unopened. I do sell some used, but even those I sell in the boxes.

I don’t think flat rate boxes can have media mail applied to them since it is just a flat rate. Using media mail saves me a bundle so I don’t think that would work for me.

Then spend an extra $2 on a heavy duty box from Home Depot. You're still coming out ahead at least $25-30 in cost difference.

I’ve been looking through there website and it looks like they have some things like Amazon, but instead of 50 you can get 500 boxes at a much cheaper rate. Has anyone here used Uline?
