I plan to start a couple of ebay auctions soon on some new GBA games. I was wondering how I should pack these games so that the box does not fold in the mail. I guess I will have to use a box rather than a mailer. If you have any information please help. Thanks!

I just get those free priority mail boxes and charge people $5 for USPS Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation. Put the GBA box in there, stuff with newspaper, and it should be good to go. Priority costs $4.05 though.

No bubble wrap envelopes.
Please use a sturdy cardboard box and some newspaper/bubble wrap/peanuts for padding.
Yes, it'll cost a buck more that way to ship since they're more fragile.
You can just pass the expense to the customer, it's the American way!

Thanks for the info.
Here is the website (http://ebaysupplies.usps.com/) for anyone that is looking for it.
Now which box is the best to get for packing GBA games?

This is the one that I get at the Post Office:
http://shop.usps.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10152&storeId=10001&categoryId=11825&productId=11645&langId=-1
It's not listed on the ebay site.

I don't see it in that website, but there's a folded box that I usually get to ship GBA games in. The ones on the site look bigger than the one I'm thinking of. I think it's this one (http://shop.usps.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10152&storeId=10001&categoryId=13354&productId=11645&langId=-1).
Edited to add: Drat, encendido beat me to it.
