8X10's Costing

[awz50]

Ive been mailing 8x10's ttm forever they always seem like a great item to get signed. Well they cost a lot to send out almost 4 bucks a pop, does anyone know a way that's a little cheaper? I still want to send them out, I just need to find a cheaper way of doing so.

Thanks
Alex

Are you asking if there is a way to pay less postage to mail an 8x10, or a way to print out 8x10's cheaper than $4?

Without board, $1.12 per 9x12 and 10x13 envelopes. With board, $1.32 per each envelope.

If you are talking about a cheaper way to get 8x10 photos, I would suggest uploading pix on Adorama. I love their lustre photos.

Im talking about shipping, I have my own professional photo printer.

There's no other way around the USPS cost of mailing that I know of. The prices are based on size and weight.

And distance.... It will be cheaper to ship something only a few states away than shipping all the way across country....

I do first class for my 8x10s. If I don't have boards inside, they are $1.12 a piece to send no matter which state

What do you mean by boards? I'm starting to occasionally send out 8x10's and I'm wondering what boards are..

cardboard insert--I've acquired many of them from online purchases or mail order signings.
