Bag Shipping and Handling Technique.

OK, so recently my friend in California asked me to send him one of my bags. It was right after easter and I was looking around to try and find something to protect the bag and I found some of those easter egg casings. The bag fit and shipped perfectly. I think this could be a good way to ship them if anyone is having filler leaking problems due to pressure (which is probably more due to a lack of quality). I hope it works as well as it did for me, for anyone else who tries it.

when you go to walmart or kroger and see those 50cent prize machines that give you the larger plastic balls with a top... get one... they are only 50 cents and stay snaped together longer than flimsy egg shells.

i dont use them... but i got a bag in one once and thought it was a clever idea. i send mine in small zippy bags... not for the filler but in case the bubble mailer gets wet in transit.

yeah, we thought of the eggs when easter was here. they wont stay shut in transit, they use machines to compress mail, so you cant send anything fragile like that. basically they smash it, so padded bubble mailers are best, and if youre wanting the bag to be untouched, the 50cent egg machines give the best footbag container....

Mne were a lot thicker. They weren't like those cases for the 50 cent toys, but mine stayed together. It was a plastic, silver color plated egg with a larg edge so it stayed together better. I then duct taped it around half of the edge (in case the postoffice had to check it). It wasn't flimsy at all in my opinion. Shipped real well!
