I'm planning to sell some things off classifieds and ship them off via USPS priority. I know USPS can provide free boxes and stuff, but I'll still need the bubble wrap or foam wrap stuff. All I have are some newspapers that can work, but not too sure if that'll work for a mobo or graphics card.

Any idea where I can buy things that can protect it? Would buble wrap work, or would the sharp cornors pop them all. Maybe foam would work I'm assuming. Ideas anyone?
 
Foam or peanuts would work well, as long as you have enough, and don't forget the anti-static bags.
 
I wrap things in bubble wrap and them submerge them in packing peanuts. And always use a box that's atleast 50% larger than the item your shipping.
