Most Economical Price CD or DVD Example:

The following list shows the base elements that are included for a single quantity order. Prices are the same for CDs or DVDs. When you set up your project, you will be able to choose other package options like CD or DVD cases.
Cost
Price for each Item


Each part of the package has an associated cost. We charge you this way to minimize any blanket overcharges to be as transparent as possible.
Weight
Weight for each Item


Each part of the package has an associated weight in ounces. We keep track of this so we can charge you as little as possible for postage.
Size
Size of Product


We keep track of the exact volume in CCs (cubic centimeters) of each type of product. For example, a DVD case is roughly 400 CCs while a thin jewel case is about 100 CCs.

By knowing the size (volume), we can correctly calculate how heavy and large the box and padding needs to be for multi-quantity orders. This way, we can charge you as little as possible for postage. We pass that savings on to you.
