Re: postal question
In Response To: postal question ()

Your best bet is the flat rate box, which costs $8.95 to ship and it doesn't matter how much it weighs (up to 70 pounds). That box will easily hold 200 chips, and is available from your local post office. If you ship outside the USA, the rate is higher and a weight limit may apply.

Flat rate envelopes cost $4.60 to mail, but wouldn't accomodate 200 chips.

Post office info:
