Look's awesome, dude! Even at $6.50 shipped that's a good deal. Gonna order some soon!

Lowered the international shipping cost. It should be about $2 for shipping now so it'll be $5 shipped.

i want this so fucking bad

Packaging is looking sick man

Random but I can't help but feel like a cool logo would be a old fashioned milk bottle lol. Like those ones that used to get delivered to your door step. Your font fits the time era.

Awesome idea Ryan. An old fashioned milk bottle would be perfect.

Hey guys, I have a quick update. First, I added some new, better photos in the original post. Also, I updated the packaging and it looks a lot nicer. I decided to add the giraffe I use on my decks because I like giraffes.

Some pics:




backside:

ordered some earlier today. Looking forward to trying it out

packaging looks niiice !

Meh.. It's kinda sad that its just a folded piece of regular printer paper with tape on.

There are loads of easy ways to get cool pro looking packaging for cheap, this does not look pro at all.

Hope mine comes today!

Yeah, but I'm not really sure how to do that while shipping at the cost of a postage stamp (because of the 1oz. rule) and I got some Ace tape from Compiny and it was packed basically just like how I do my packaging (with paper) and I found no problems with how it was packed and it looked pretty professional to me. I'm not the richest guy in the world but if you have any suggestions I will definitely look into them.

Awesome! Yeah, you may notice that at first it's not too grippy, but as you use it it becomes really nice. Hope you like it.

i really like the packaging. it's simple and allows for non-pricey shipping

dude i think it's super grippy! im fucking stoked to get some on a deck

Im just gonna throw away the package and I hate plastic so 100% paper is legit. less in the ocean..

Got some!

This stuff looks rad, will definitely pick some up soon!

I like the looks of the packaging actually. Also paper is eco friendly and cheap. Very well executed.

Thanks for your kind words, it means a lot   

The beard is looking sick Bakko!

gonna order some too

Last option seams like the best. Even a cheapo (toploaded) printer will be perfect for printing direcly on to the envelopes. If interested I may be helpful with setting up the artwork for the envelope. Just throwing it out there..

I'm all for cost effective packaging, and this is what I use which still falls under the 1oz rule to be mailed with a standard postage stamp.



-Baggies: 1,000 for $10 off Amazon (3"x5"). Whatever mil thickness is the cheapest you can find is fine.
-Package Cards: 100lb card stock $9 for a ream (250 sheets). They are heavy duty like a playing card thickness.
-Envelopes: 50-100 for $1 at most dollar stores (I use Dollar Tree).
-Printing: $0.50 per color sheet at Staples if you bring your own paper. Probably less if you only print black. I can fit 6-12 package cards depending on their size per sheet. Unless you have a super efficient laser printer at home or most of your card stays white then it's more cost effective to have them printed.

Just a suggestion of packaging from one new company to another.

if i ever start a company, im not even gonna have packaging. im just gonna go to the person's house and throw it at them once they open the door

*edit* and yeah Bakko your beard looks glorious man haha
