Does anyone sell cardboard ammo boxes other than Midway

[chim-chim7]

I am looking for 50 round, blank cardboard, 9mm and .45acp pistol boxes. Prefer a Styrofoam tray but plastic works too. I was going to order some Midway boxes, but the shipping was going to cost more than 2 orders of boxes.

If I were looking for them, I would visit a range (usually an indoor one) and start hoarding from the trash.

^^^ That's what I was doing til I got lazy and started putting putting 'em in ziplock bags.

I just checked and got UPS Ground shipping for $13.74 with two packs of 25 boxes.
The 25-packs are $12 each, so I don't quite follow you.

If there's anything else you want to order, you might try putting everything together and that will water the shipping charge down. Maybe it will only be a few bucks more shipping for the extra stuff.

The only other place I've seen them is at Scharch, but they're more expensive.

How about the older card paper egg crate boxes ? The 20 and 50 round type without styrafoam bases. They do not appear to be available any longer.
At least I have not found any --

Egg crate boxes? Like the kind they used to package stripper clip ammo in?

I don't know about stripper clips -- I am thinking of the aftermarket boxes that were made like older commercial ammo boxes. Midway used to have them years ago. They are made of a sort of waxed card stock.

Well, maybe -- it is not clear to me that these are the same -- and apparently they do not sell retail --

[chim-chim7]

Yes those look of better quality than the styrofoam trays. A bit more but free shipping if your total order is $100 or more. Anyone tried Top Brass before?

[bumpo628]

The best deal is still Midway.
