Posting Snails

[Floyds mum]

Hi, im just wondering how people post snails?

Will it be ok if i soak a paper towel in some tank water, put the snails in and put paper towel complete with snails in a small container. Put in a sealed bag and post in jiffy bag?
That is how i recieved mine but im just wondering how people mail theirs, for different ideas and so first timers can have info to.

I'd be intersted in buying some snails if you are shipping them out. What cha got?

If you're posting then there will only be one factor that considerably affects price.

Whether it fits the 'large letter' category. I found most of mine ended up as packets so it cost more... but weight doesn't REALLY come into it, not for the weight of most snails anyhoo.
