    It may just be my area, but something shipped in a garbage bag is essentially guaranteed to arrived damaged. I'm not trying to make more work for you but I'd rather sort this out now, rather than deal with damaged goods.

    I'm not just tiring it in a knot and shipping them. They will be heavily taped and packaged. No one has complained on the MB Forum. That's how he shipped their towels to. Buying 50 boxes gets expensive and time consuming. I'll make sure I tape yours up real nice

    I feel ya Brett. a "garbage bag" is essentially your workaround for a "poly mailer" that amazon and a ton of other companies use.

    Though I'm sure that the shipping employees will be playing football with our bags-of-towels!

    I figured dropping into a box would be much less time consuming than creating packaging.

    But we are taking ideas from MB owners, which shows a pattern of poor decision making, so no surprise


    Are you going to get pricing from USPS, Fed Ex, and USPS? I think each are a different pricing structure. Likely will need dimensions and weight for the different order sizes.

    Like I said, maybe it's my area. These are a gift so want them to arrive nice and clean. I'm not going to argue with you but I don't like the idea.

    The pros say USPS and the pros say good packaging. Anything else is BS from amateur shippers.

    Yep, just pay for the rate. If it fits it ships. I'm still waiting to order my lead wake because I feel bad for my old mail carrier
