    Rods I've ordered came in cardboard tubes, and the longer ones in PVC pipe. You might try the PVC route.

    I think he means the plastic wrap like a long thin sandwich bag.

    Uline sells it in rolls. You can only get rolls that are like several hundred feet. Think it's like $30 or so. I looked at it once for shipping rods I built. I just look for when the sponsors on here closeout crappy color rod sleeves and buy a bunch (pink, puke yellow) and then just ship in that. I think the last time I got purple for like $3 each. If you don't mind waiting for them you can get sleeves on Ebay from China for less than $2.

    If you're only going to ship a few just go with the sleeves.

    Hey Sal.
    How many do you need? I think I have some stashed away when me and my partner got a few new rods a few years back.
    I'll check and send them to you for the shipping cost which can't be much.
