Oh why, oh why must my beautiful box the glistening delightful minis be surrounded by diminutive, statically charged, demons of agonizing torment! Why do condemn your customers to the carpet soiling, choking doom of Styrofoam peanuts!?!?!?! Like vampiric albino leeches they cling to my flesh, and drain my life energy!
One word....Cosmo.
You know they have now designed bubble wrap that can't be popped. Pure evil.

Yes but there's no way whoever designed that so-called bubble wrap isn't in maximum security prison right now... unless... can you still magically get the sound? Because unpoppable bubble wrap that still makes fun sound is awesome, infinite bubble wrap for everywhere, parents of young children rejoice!

You are probably just scared that the squishy and clingy residue out of some archdemons household might mutate your zombies beyond your control, aren't you?

What is this "control" you speak of?
It is 'The list', riding the patterns in the glorious chaos that will ensue. Iah Iah Ftaghn!

No one at Paizo will refute how horrible packing peanuts are. The warehouse and customer service empathize 100% with this sentiment everytime we deal with packing peanuts (5 days a week). So why do they get used? They have the best overall protection for most orders while keeping costs down.

Sara, quick question:
What is the possibility of wrapping orders within brown craft paper, so that our product is not infiltrated with those green demons of agonizing torment?
I see 12" by 1200 feet craft paper is relatively cheap- less than $15. Assuming 12" by 3 feet for each order (your mileage may vary), that would end up less than 4 cents per order.

Actually, someone made a point upthread. They mentioned being willing to pay extra for not having peanuts. At first my reaction was "yeah, nobody will do it." Then I started refining my opinion.
For a typical box with a book or two in it, you need what... 12-24 inches of bubblewrap?
Turns out a quick Google search tells me that (for instance), a 12" by 750 foot spool goes for $56 USD. You're talking $0.08 a foot.
So hey. How about take that very clueless and napkin-back math and say... give us a checkbox that adds $1 per box to use bubblewrap? I can't be off by a factor of ten on the estimate.
Sure, many people won't bother, but I know it'd be tempting to me.

You forget you have to pay someone to wrap them up...either a new hire...or someone who is all ready there who taking their time to do this thus delaying the packages from going out.

Radical thought: have^H^H^H^Hlet the poor bastard whose arms are perpetually covered in peanuts do it instead of pouring peanuts into the box.

We used to use craft paper, but stopped because it scuffed the book covers. (I *think* we still use it in some shipments that won't have that problem.)
