Fly Tying

Question for people who sell flies.

Crackaig: that's very nice of them to destroy the envelope and deliver it to the receiver. Thumps up for that :-)

 

Mistakes happens, but are not nice to experience. I had a shipment coming back to me a week after I sent it to a costumer. We thought it was gone, so I tied new ones, but they turned up in time to be sent again. The costumer said that his name was on the mail box. Oh well. :-)

 

It seems the cheapest way is to buy a big bulk of boxes at low cost instead of buying them at the post office.

I like Cheech use hard plastic box inside of padded envelope. Havn't had a mishap yet - knock on wood. I scavange the plastic boxes that my IT office throws out - they are empty backup disc boxes about 3 or 4 inches square and three quarters inch deep. They throw out twenty boxes every couple months. They are perfect, free and I'm recycling.

Hi.

 

How do you ship your flies out to costumers? Letter or box?

The best I have found is in a ziplock, then fold cardboard to make envelope. Remember large orders are worth the mail costs and a tracking number/insurance. Classics get shipped in hockey card/deck of cards plastic cases with foam to press in case mailroom lads have a football game with the package!
