Best box to ship shoes?

i just put the shoe box inside of two paper grocery bags to cover them up and tape the bags up so that the tape doesn't get on the shoe box.

boxes cost money and most niketalkers and ebayers complaing about shipping and HANDLING costs when i tell them that their shoes will be double boxed if they pay the $2-3 a box to fit shoes in costs.
 
The vid is great but what about larger shoe boxes, like Lebron XI's? Those Lebron boxes are longer in length than the boxes modded in the vid.
 
Yeah

Yeah I went to my local usps and the lady complained about the box not being a "medium rate" box due to me cutting it....I wanted to say Bt*h it says medium rate on the box. They just cover it.

The video is still good but use UPS large size boxes instead. All you have to do is prepare the box from the inside out. I got tired of making these boxes and just bought 16x10x6 boxes from Staples. Easier than spending 15 minutes cutting, and taping.

I like to make a label online and skimp on the weight and I drop it off and I leave before they notice. 9/10 works. Ship from NY to Cali for ~$10 including signature. Anywhere else is ~$7/8
 
you dont even need a box really... just buy brown paper from your local cvs and your good... just wrap the box up with the brown paper put some tape and your good..also when you buy shoes and if you buy a lot just save the box... the usps thing is cool if your shipping priority but i ship ground to cut costs so for me at least it would defeat the purpose if i used priority box... but it also depends on the location you shipped to also because sometimes its close to your crib so priority is the same price
