          Yeah the milk thing got raped. Imagine how many boxes were sent out to people on PBN, now how many other forums like that are their out of. The amount of waste generated by retards has to be over ten thousand a year not to mention the poor trees

            I ordered about 100 boxes. I'll use them for ebay selling and such, but it won't' hurt to make a scale model of stalingrad on the weekends...

              Too late, now they put a cap on how many boxes you can order. That isn't a bad thing, and they probably should have done that from the start. I could care less, it's not like I'm going to order boxes, but it will be a nuisance for big companies that actually want 2000 boxes. Oh well, not that big of a deal.

                I imagine large companies that use that many boxes regularly to ship by USPS can simply ask and will be given them based on past usage

                  Back when I was in middle school, kids would go to the post office and get those blank postal stickers that are a little bigger then a notecard. They would do there graffiti on them and stick em eveywhere

                    I don't know of many "big" companies that ship boxes USPS anyways; typically UPS.

                      You'd be surprised. UPS owns the ground shipping market, but they can't match the cost of priority mail.

                        True, but big companies get pretty cheap UPS rates. It costs us about the same to ship UPS ground as USPS priority.

                          I get mine from UPS. They offer larger sizes.

                            I've used this before, and for a good reason, I ship out about 8 boxes a week. Although I ordered 100 boxes and 700 stickers, I only have about a quarter of what I started with. I don't even ship USPS though, I use UPS, so I have to brown paper bag all the boxes. And the stickers are great for holding the box together.

                              Just assemble the boxes inside out. Then they're UPS boxes. It really bothers me reading through the PBN threads. I haven't been there in a few months, and it's so overrun with immature kids it's ridiculous. As for the boxes, I'm trying to be considerate and find what boxes I need. I wish there were some nice marker-sized boxes. I'm trying to find boxes that I will actually use. USPS should go after all these kids and make an example of them.

                                I'd be very suprised if USPS actually send them their free boxes.
