Also, does anyone know of a lighter yet more durable substitute for cardboard to use when shipping pennants? I rec'd a pennant a while back that was shipping in a hard white, yet very light type of "cardboard". Not sure what that's called but would like to find it and price it out.
Thanks!

I don't think you can expect to ship that many pennants for a whole lot less than that. It is not cheap anymore to ship a larger item. $12.95 is a lot for one pennant, but I would be just fine with $58 total. I send all mine flat by combining 2 Priority boxes together, but that's not cheap anymore either. Everyone wants their item to arrive in mint condition, but only wants to pay $3-4 for it and will complain either way. I ship everything Priority Mail and oftentimes lose money on shipping. Packaging supplies are not cheap either if you try to go first class. Good luck either way.
