You can easily use these for shipping books, they will definitely hold up well and stay sealed. :)

A would suggest buying bubble bags if book has to arrive without any bumps and bruises. USPS has free flat rate bubble mailers for priority mail. These bags do hold up and have never had anything shipped in them damaged but with books I would either box it or use bubble wrap inside these bags for extra protection. Media mail may be a less expensive shipping method but if you sell on Ebay damage will earn you negative feedback. Hope this information helps.

not really, if your book is value. The envelope will get tear if something hook on it.

I would use your common sense, remember this is a plastic mailer, not a box. If you use this, you should put in a box first to protect the covers of the book from damage during shipment

You can definitely use these poly envelopes to mail books. Just pick the right size that best fits the book and use media mail with the USPS. You can put in a piece of cardboard or wrap the book in bubble wrap for additional protection.

When I gave ordered books mine always come in a bubble mailer to protect them from dents

If you want to use this bag for books, I would recommend wrapping them in bubble wrap before placing them into the poly bag. This will protect the book better during the shipping process.

I agree with the other responses. I have a full shelf of books on the bottom, the other 2 shelves each 1/2 full of books, and a large book of Kells on the top. It is sturdy, but is likely to wobble from the printer movement. At most I would recommend a small printer, preferably on the lower shelves.

I don't use these to mail books. I used a bubble envelope to mail books. Or a tyvek envelope. These are great in sending clothes!

It's Amazon. Why don't you just ship it where it needs to go with gift wrapping?

Shipping is based on total order amount. The post office charges a minimum of one pound for shipping, and we have to pay a staff to pick, wrap, pack and then label the boxes for shipping, whereas if you picked it up in one of our stores, none of that would be needed.

Just bought an extra shelf from Trinity directly from their website for 27.98 (free shipping, and no tax for my state). The shelve also sells on amazon, fulfilled by Trinity but they want $8 for shipping...yes I am Prime.

I know there are products that maintain the temperature at a safe level, such as small filled pouches with dry ice. I think this is how most shippers will use when sending their products.

Depends on the price the Vendors can get them for and be sure to pay attention to shipping cost too. Do your research to see which Vendors have the best rating too.

We use them to ship light objects CD in cardboard cover etc. I would not use them for a hard back book. They would not hold up. The heaviest item we have shipped is a 6 disc plastic DVD size case and it had a manageable damage rate of 2 or 3 per 100, but was very light <4oz. Avg hard back book is over a pound + .

If you want basically the same prices, order from B&H.; If you are a NAPP member you get free shipping. They also have a superb return policy and will work with you on software. Something Amazon does not since they don't have the photography smarts that B&H; has. I buy from both regularly. [B&H; doesn't sell books. LOL]

I just ordered from this company and they send the small tools that you need to install it.With the shipping it cost today, $31.83 better than buying a new reader.

Yes, it is. These boxes are the best for mailing records. They fold easily over, and they are absolutely wonderful. You will love them for shipping records. Well worth the buy. Thanks for asking.

If you've ever gotten a Kindle, you've used the frustration free packaging. It's the recycled zip tie pox. Standard packing is what you would get at a retail store.

I found the best way to get books from my computer to my Aluratek Libre is to load it on an SD card first. Loading directly on the Libre Pro was rather slow. I have a 16 GB SD card, but you probably don't need anything bigger than 8 GB if you're just putting books on it. I bought a USB SD card reader on eBay for about $5 including shipping to use with it. My preferred file format is usually RTF for the Libre Pro. You can download the free program, Calibre to convert files to what ever format you like best.

Yes! I bought them for that exact reason. I have about 7 bookshelves of books ranging from light paperbacks to dense anthologies, and I have used these boxes to move all my books during 3 different moves. They are very durable still and I will definitely use them again. Plus, they store flat, so it is easy to store them away to reuse later.They are very sturdy and easy to carry, and they are just the right size to store/move books.
