[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1139975, member: 7999"] I get the U-line catalog and there isn't anything in it that fits. I should look at their web site. Steve, Who is going to absorb the cost, seller or buyer? The zippies are hard to beat. If the fancy packaging is going to be passed on to me as the consumer, zip lock bags are just fine with me ... but that's just me. :cool: We would like to hit the shelves with them at some point. And the bags do not seem protective enough. Also boxes of 100 of 50 would be nicer to pack and ship in a larger container. Small heavy boxes seem to get terribly abused by the shippers. I think when they grab a relatively small box expecting it to be light and it weighs 25lbs they get irritated and then toss it. I very much appreciate the cost aspect of packaging. The fact is any manufacturer passes this cost on to the purchaser. It has to be this way or you go out of business. Cost of business has to be calculated and then margin from there. If margin is calculated without all the cost then you have trouble. Recycling sounds great. Send back your box and we will re-fill it. Not sure if customers would be willing to save the $1 or less to do it. Ideally I would like to find out who makes the box that Berger uses. Steve [/QUOTE]
