    Looks like 5055 learned a lesson the hard way. Figure out shipping PRIOR to selling. How can you quote someone a shipping price if you aren't sure how you are going to ship it?
    I have shipped tons of items with these envelopes. The are padded with bubble wrap on the interior. Heck, I have even shipped coffee mugs in them. Never a problem. I wouldnt ship something heavy that could possibly tear the envelope. Also, you can put the drive in a box and place the box inside the envelope. More than one way to skin a cat...
