    If you can keep them under 13oz would only cost about $3 to ship.

    I think if the people are actually buying them for projects of some kind then their going to need more than 10,
    I had checked some of the completed sales before I listed and 25 or more seemed to be a common number.

    Call several yards by you and ask. Prices vary yard to yard, city to city.
