| I see my other post got locked about shipping on my gsg mags. I got the mags today and could not believe the size of the box they ship in. I am not complaining about the $6 for two mag because it beat $11 for one mag but. The box was huge its like 11x8x5 for 2 mags. I figured throw them in a padded envelope and call it a deal. Is it just a convenience to keep a few sizes of boxes and just add padding?? I have been wondering this alot lately on a few different orders from different companies come packaged this way little item huge box lots of air bags or paper. Just curious |

Sometimes a flat rate box is cheaper than calculated shipping. Don't ask why, just trust that the government-controlled USPS knows what it's doing...
It could also be that, in the case that it "accidentally" gets used as a football by USPS, it's better protected in a box. |
