| If I'm sending the darts in a case then I'll package them like the darts you sent me. Wrapped up in a bubble wrap envelope.
If i don't have a case then I'll put the darts in a point protector and secure them with some cardboard then put them in a bubble wrap envelope.

| I put them in their wallets with a point protector and use a jiffy bag. If its a loose set then I put them in a point protector then inside a plastic cd sleeve.
I got 4 loose sets off an ebay seller once that came in an ordinary envelope with no point protectors. Of course I only ended up with one complete set, there was quite a few missing. Got my refund though. |

| Yeah, remember getting a set from you in the CD sleeve, great idea Grip.
I agree with Jedi and Bigshow, always protect those points and taping them to card makes sure they don't come loose in transit.
I used to work at the sorting office and I know first hand that the parcels get thrown around, so securing the darts will help prevent any loss. |

| I've got a box full of bubble wrap jiffy bags, always use them for darts! If i'm just sending barrels then i point protect them then trim the jiffy bags smaller (cheaper postage ;) ), never had a complaint yet |

| Nice job Winmau!!
I put mine in the point protector then a piece of cardboard that I tape up. Then they go in a bubble wrap envelope that I trim so that they fit nice and snug. |

| Generally I put them in a point protector then in to a Bar wallet then a jiffy bag. I found some nice small ones in the Pound shop that were a spot on size for 1 to 2 sets of darts. Haven't seen them since but i bought 3 packs of 5 so will be ok for a few sets yet. I dont tend to sell many as I keep them for others to practice with when they are struggling with form with their own darts. I like many other have recieved empty envelopes where people have sent them loose in a standard envelope & I got nothing but an envelope with a hole in the corner. Could be a scam i suppose as they may not have sent them at all. |

| Bubble wrap envelop, and darts in a point protector.
I vary rarely send shafts/ flights unless asked to do so, as everyone has there own setup. |
