Best Way to Send DVDs by Post?

[fergus1980]

So I'll have a few DVD's to send when my eBay auctions finish. They are3 DVD packs that weight around 850 grams what's the best way to send? Unknown as of yet if the buyers will be in Brisbane / Sydney etc. (I'm based in Brisbane).

What about couriers like Fastway / Couriers please?

Other option of course is use a box from Australia Post or a satchel?

Any information would be great.

Thanks

Thanks Curraone.

Can you point me in the right direction to these eBay labels?

Thanks again

Fergus, in "My eBay" under sold items there will be an option to "Print postage label".

It may be hiding under "More actions". It will take you to "Create postage label" and all the steps will be in there.

It's usually best to send DVDs individually because they are thin enough to be posted as letters in padded bags.

1 single disc DVD can usually be sent for $1.40 in an A5 size padded bag

1 double/triple disc DVD can usually be sent for $2.10 in an A5 size padded bag

2 x double/triple disc DVDs can usually be sent for $3.50 in an A4 size padded bag

Padded bags aren't usually that expensive either; 50c or less each from most stores.

There's also the advantage that letters are delivered quicker than parcels.
