    Something to think about.. Because the value of a roll of wheats isnt very high, and you would have to pay $2-$3 to ship each one.. I would suggest selling them all togethor as a lot. That way you only have to pay $4.95 to ship them in a priority box. Increase your profit!

    Remember the handling cost too! The bubble mailer can cost about $1.99 too, unless you buy bulk! ;)

    And the USPS priority boxes are free from the post office or you can order them online, delivery is free also

    Seven rolls of wheats, worth about $10.50 cost $5 to ship, so so if I was buying I would be looking at paying no more than $5.50 for the rolls. If you have a local shop you might do better just to sell them there. If you had more rolls it might make more sense to sell and ship because the shipping cost doesn't change.

    I agree. Unless you have good dates you might be better off just selling or trading them to a local dealer.
