How do you mail your swap?

only need one envelope - just include TO: and FROM: labels that will be used on the envelope ya send the flies in. Put return postage in the form of stamps in with the flies. Some postoffices get picky and won't accept the pre-done postage. Always affix a to and from label on the fly container.

I have 10 regular fly boxes are reserved specifically for swaps. I place the flies, with toe-tags, in the box, place that in a 4 x 8 envelope with my address on it, then place that in an 8 x 11 envelope with the swapmeisters address on it. I do not seal the envelopes.

When I get to the Post Office, I have them calculate the postage, and then get 2 sets of stamps for that amount. I place one set on the 4 x 8 envelope, and place it back in the larger one, unsealed. Then I seal the large one, and place the other set of stamps on it, and then mail the whole package.

I use a plastic travel soap box inside of a regular manilla envelope, with another manilla envelope inside. Name and info are on the box because it makes it easier for the swapmeister, and it might help get it back to you if the USPS mangles things up.
