Somewhere in the desert.....
I can't believe it, but I finally ran out of the single cigar size baggies so I'm putting in an order. Anyone want to split on this? Post or PM, and I'll figure out prices.
 
If I may stick my nose in where it wasn't asked for...

Splitting the cost for baggies is useless. The baggies (2x8 zippers) are $7 and some change per thousand from Veripack. They will ship them to you for less than $5. (or they do me ??? )

If two people split 1000 bags at those prices they will each have to pay $6 and then someone will have to pay $3.80 to get the other half to the other person. So... someone will be paying 9.80 (6+3.80) for 500 bags when they could have gotten 1000 for $4 more.

The savings aren't there in bulk either. If you buy 25,000 baggies, you can get them for $6.67 per thousand.

Good luck though. :thumbs:
 
Get all the people who need baggies into a pass. Kill 2 birds withone stone so to speak. :)

Again. The postage costs more to re-send the box than the baggies you will be getting from it are worth.
 
I think Steve makes a valid point... And who said inbreeding doesn’t work. :p

OR....

You could add the re-shipping cost into the whole package, then each person pays $8 for 500. That sounds better than $12 for 1000, at least since I would never use 1000 in my life ???

To each his own I guess. They really don't go that far when your trading/bombing/passing/lotterying/etc.

I bought a thousand a couple different times and sent out 50-100 to several different people who didn't need very many at no cost to them. Maybe I could do that again sometime. ???

Ah, go ahead Joe. (Good God, I was quoting Steve and referrenced Joe!! I AM getting old!)

(Had to get rid of all the math, it was confusing me.) Now I've got the name of the vendor that I was looking for. Kinda roundabout, but hey, whatever works.
