I'll definately be ordering some boxes with this one!

Me too, I need to figure out what I need.

I went through and made of list of boxes I need when they had the last sale. I am ready to go. Thanks for this!! Wonder why I didn't get an e-mail about it though.

Hmmm, not working on the boxes I've selected so far.  Anyone know what qualifies as "retail store supplies"?

If you do a search on Google for: Retail Store Supplies Staples, it actually shows corrugated boxes. May have to call in to get the discount applied.

Anyone have a cheat sheet that outlines what Staples shipping boxes work best with the various Lego boxes?

Almost 50% off a female mannequin, just the top half.  I'm searching for the bottom half now, since I know some of you will need the link.

Measure the boxes you have the most of.  Staples has a box for just about everything.  I think in my last order I had about 5 standard sizes that fit about everything.

Just got off the phone and completed my order.  They honored the coupon for boxes, but they had to get authorization to push it through.

Brickset also includes box dimensions. I make a guestimate of what I want to sell and order boxes accordingly.

Very nice, I got 75 boxes for 34.00 shipped. Thanks for the heads up!

You must have bought the same ones I did.

For small sets, 12x10x6 are exactly $15 for a bundle of 25. I used the coupon code on 100 of these for $30+tax. Uline charges $0.60+freight for the same box.

I bought 50 - 11-3/4"(L) x 8-3/4"(W) x 4-3/4"(H) - Great for $20 sets (Wolverine Choppers 6866 & Power Armor Lex 6862)

25 - 24"(L) x 14"(W) x 4"(H) - Great for Dolphin Cruisers, Black Gate's & Weathertops)

 

Total = $34.82 shipped

For those who don't know, the free USPS boxes are really good for smaller sets too, I use the ones that are roughly 15x12x3 and they fit sets like Umbaran MHC and Friends Adventure Camper perfectly.

Since I am not in position to spend time and call CS to get this offer right now, does anyone know what time Staples CS closes ?

I think 8pm eastern time. Not for sure, but that what I believe I have seen on their website before.

Those are only Priority Mail Flat Rate, right?

There is a 15 x 12 x 3 mailing box that is NOT flat rate. Those can be ordered from USPS for free 25 per case.

I hate to ask, because I should know. What Staples envelopes are great for sending minifigures?

 

These?

Those should work size wise but I'd recommend bubble mailers, I've had trouble with other envelopes being ripped open and the minifigures falling it in transit. Happened more than once so I know it wasn't someone trying to scam me

do you mind posting a link?  I just searched the website and did some googling but couldnt find these

Here you go:

The only caveat is they have to be sent using priority mail, but I generally send everything priority anyways so it's not a big deal for me.

Also for bubble mailers, check out Sunuku mailers on ebay. I recently purchased 50 bubble mailers for minifigs for $7, and you can get them cheaper if you buy more. They're not as high of quality as some other brands, but they definitely get the job done.

Thanks for the heads up.  Called CS, they were very helpful - no issues.
