[Dixielandjazz] Boxes/envelopes For Shipping CDs

[Stanley A. Klein]

Bob -

Try computer stores.  It depends on what you have where you are, e.g., you
probably have Fry's Electronics there, but they are not in the DC area.

I just bought a box of 100 paper cd envelope/jackets at the new
MicroCenter store in Rockville, MD.  (I needed to burn the cd's for
CentOS-5 Linux and needed something to put them in.)  They also had bulk
jewel cases there.

If you want regular boxes to send multiple CD's in, there is a place here
called The Container Store that sells all kinds of boxes.  I think it is a
chain, but I don't know where else they have stores.  I never looked for
boxes sized to take multiple cd jewel cases, but I wouldn't be surprised
if they had them.

If you are sending them out a few at a time, I would tend to use the
bubble pack envelopes.  They might be cheapest at Office Depot, but I
would look for them at well-stocked computer stores as well.
