    Any Spokane BA's find a local place that sells shippers?

    I know there are places online, but it ends up being $40 for the shippers and $60 for shipping.

    What say ye Spokane BA's?

    Local wine shop? They get bottles in and have to recycle/toss the packing materials often.

    I thought about that, but I'm pretty sure that most of the wine here comes from distributors in cases rather than shippers.

    I've got one you can have for a beer. It's got a lot of mileage on the box but the styro is still in good shape.

    Message me.

    From the couple of places I've tried (and had success), they still get some useful shippers from higher end bottles that don't ship by the case. I assume there are a few places in Spokane that carry cult and boutique wines. A few phone calls should tell you if you can expect the same kind of luck without driving all over town.

    Thanks dude, but I'm actually looking to buy a quantity. I've been averaging 1-2 trades a month and right now I'm using bubble wrap and newspaper and ziploc bags etc...it's getting very labor intensive to get things packed well enough so I can sleep at night.

    We should still meet up for a beer though.

    Try total wine? I picked up some at bevmo so I assume they would also have them.

    Vino! A Wine Shop on Washington between 2nd and 3rd will sell you shippers. They have used and new to sell. Can't remember the prices but I'm sure a phone call can help you out with that.
