i heard in another forum that the usps was going to start charging for the priority boxes. i confirmed this with a friend who is a supervisor with the post office. it might be a good idea to stock up on these while they are still free.

I ordered about 10000 a while ago. They actually sent me a letter asking me if I'd made a mistake. I think I'm set.
The small flat rate and the large media box. The large media box is the one that is 9.25x6.75x2. The dimensions are something like that I think. I use those primarily.

The Matrix?
I use the Priority Mail box Small, 8.625" x 5.375" x 1.625" , for PIFs and Trades. It's the perfect size for about 5 cigars plus bubble-wraps. Box + 5 cigars (including a 12" x 12" sheet of bubblewrap) shipping cost only $4.05 (plus Delivery Confirmation of $0.50, I believe).
Thanks for the heads up. I ordered a bunch of various sizes for future use. I guess stamps will be going up again after my order.

If you don't use them for the intended purpose they'll get you for it. There was a guy on the Dateline or some show that moved into an apartment but was too broke to buy furniture, so made all of the furniture in his apartment out of FedEx supplies and documented it on his blog. They sent him a cease and desist order and I believe were taking him to court.
