Like Vincent, I got mine from Steve Osbourne. Steve's boxes are very robust high quality stiff card, not like the flimsy white boxes that Derann used. You can tape one side of the box with Scotch packing tape to form a nice hinge.

I am a lover of the hobby. I will never do anyone a disservice, therefore for you Vidar, with all of your efforts of superb photos etc during the Blackpool convention for us all to enjoy, I offer you these gratis.
Just simply let me know how many you would like.

Vidar I will get twenty out in the post to you by Thursday. I will charge you only for what it costs me to send to you British Royal Mail to Norway. If you ever need any more,just ask.
Please inbox me your postal details Vidar

I've packed your boxes today Vidar but didn't get chance to post as I had to wait in today. I will post tomorrow and get back to you. Thomas once I have sorted Vidars order I will get back to you for what you want.

I just hope I can get the postal costs fairly cheap for you Vidar as this box is quite big with 20 of these in it plus a tiny amount of bubble wrap to protect them.
What was the postage costs previously Vidar when you got these from Cine Supplies? Did he use a courier service or Royal Mail?

I've sent a PM back. But I have no idea what they mean with locality, sorry. I think maybe USPS is the cheapest, even if they're a lot more than a couple of years ago
Edit : I thought you were US :-) Royal Mail is bound to be cheaper I think. Sorry for my slowness
