Re: Shipping Kratom
I get the flat rate priority bubble mailers (9.5 x 12.5) that run just under $10 to send and take them to the post office. This is for anything over a quarter kilo. You can fit up to about a kilo and a quarter in one.
Sometimes the post office doesn't have them and you have to order online but they're free. Last time I ordered I got 50 of them. They were sent in a tall box, completely free, no shipping charge.
Most people use these I think. A quarter or less you can get mailers of any kind you want and send them first class.

Re: Shipping Kratom
I am just learning too. Every time I ship to one of you all, the price is different and the packing is different. Then, I hear an unexpected number, get nervous and just dumbly slide my debit card.Roofdog wrote: ↑Wed Jul 20, 2022 5:25 amVery helpful thank you.

Suggestions:
Don't leave anything visible, claim it is green tea and don't pay more than $10. Does that seem about right?

Re: Shipping Kratom
Yeah....UPS is expensive.
Like I said earlier, you can fit up to about one and a quarter kilos in one of those flat rate bubble mailers.
I can and have fit considerably more than that but then I have to wrap the whole thing with packing tape
so it doesn't explode from the pressure. One of our members calls it a 'kratom bomb'.

I don't know. Ask my former mailman. Now he resides at Sacred Heart Hospital for Kratom Accidents and Lion Maulings. Don't ask me why they put those together.

Re: Shipping Kratom
We? Or YOU? I almost testified against you "Green Monster" (her FBI name, it you didn't know, guys) but they wanted me to pay my own airfare. Can you IMAGINE THAT? You're dealing with a menace, so I learned from the best. Uh...I mean....uh....be careful.
It was really fun going through all of those old posts. Memory lane....
