SB, You have been pointing out how the internet is going to cut into margins. Here is proof of what you have said. See below: Brown Shipping Carton 5" x 5" x 5" Item # 03016122 , Style # CB-5N EA 1 day $0.79 officemax.com Now look at this product: Choose these popular sizes for shipping round, cubic or odd-shaped items. Order by 6pm for same day shipping. For larger quantities, call or email Uline for a quote. Product Information View Catalog Page #023 Check Inventory (You need Adobe Acrobat to read these links) Price Each Qty 25 100 250 500 1000 Price $0.24 $0.22 $0.21 $0.19 $0.18 Minimum order quantity: 25 Please order in multiple of: 25 Quantity per carton: 25 Quantity per skid: 1800 Unit Weight: 0.18 lbs. uline.com Both boxes are 200 LB test. Officemax has the product no matter what the quantity order at 79 cents each. Uline has it with a small quantity of 25 at 24 cents each. This is a huge difference. Anyhow, I was buying shipping boxes from officemax, Officedepot, Staples, etc. I know buy them from Uiline.
