    Where can you buy small cardboard boxes so that i can send a fragile item (Hard Drive) in the post...

    Returning something to Komplett

    Preferably in the Douglas area

    Chance your arm and head into Argos or somewhere like that and see is there any small boxes they are throwing away. Maybe the post office??

    Easons do small post boxes and would be perfect for a hard drive. Think they're about 2-3 euro.

    You said the Douglas area? Try the centre, New Look usually have boxes from bags behind the counter, same with dunnes and gamestop. Or if you're feeling really cheecky ask someone in the centre staff to get a box from the bailer out the back if it hasnt compacted yet

    Not being cheeky at all!
    I work in a shop and customers always ask for our empty boxes and we're more then happy to give them.
    Definetly would do that IMO

    Well it has to fit a Hard Drive so something from the size of a tissue box to a shoe box should do perfect!!!
