I'm looking for the brain trust's recommendation on shipping dies and molds that won't fit into a small flat rate box.
I've had very good luck shipping brass with flat rate boxes that are well reinforced with fiber tape. I've also gotten fond of the small flat rate boxes, however I'm observing many die or mold boxes won't fit inside the small box. It seems excessive to increase the postage cost by 70% by going up to a medium flat rate.
Does anyone use the flat rate padded envelopes to put a die box in? If so do you put a layer of cardboard in with the dies and do things arrive safely?
I've tried a few searches here but haven't found any current discussion.
