    Does anybody know how to ship about 10-20 EMPTY wine bottles, people buy them on ebay for about 0.75-1 each and would like some shipping advice and an approximate price for the shipping.

    Phil - My Dad made wine and would send cases to people in the same boxes that "big" wine makers send them in, Go to a liquor store near you, ask the owner/manager if they could save you some. You need them with the top still attached, sometimes they will cut the tops off with a razor knife. You will also want the insert/dividers with the boxes, these keep the bottles from contacting each other. The best thing to ship wine bottles, is the same boxes they ship them in originally. These will allow you to send twelve bottles, 750ML standard wine bottles (you will want to sell same size bottles by the way).
