How to ship CD's


How do you folks ship CDs? That is, what is the safest and least expensive way to do so? Thanks.

To ZD542,

I'm going to be placing some ads shortly for a bunch of my SACDs, some of which are OOP and are somewhat valuable. So, I want them to arrive safely to the purchaser.

Because I'm old and have early Alzheimers, what is USPS Media Mail? I haven't heard of this one.
Since they are valuable, what the best venders do is cut 2 pieces of corrugated cardboard and sandwich the cd between them, then tape together. Then put into the mailer.
I have sent a few & received many as per E's description. And yes, some have arrived with cracked cases. I ALWAYS cover mine in bubble-wrap & add a cardboard outer & put them in a padded envelope -- to no avail. Some arrive cracked anyway.
If they're valuable and you're concerned about damage a USPS small flat-rate box at $5.80 might be a good option. You'd get a tracking number with that.
