We use EcoEnclose as much as possible (wheelfanatyk.com). You mention Uline which, despite its quality and accessibility, is wholly owned by Robert Uihlein who (worth ~$4B) is the world's largest known donor to Trump and rightwing causes, which could affect one's choices re: "greener shipping."
I am not a shipping supplies activist and take, at face value, sustainability statements of suppliers. However, if someone is among the world's richest/largest/most extreme, I'm liable to notice and adjust accordingly. Let's make decisions that are as informed as possible!
bookfinder is awesome. The interface on mobile though 🤦🏻♂️. the initial search is great and looks like the site will be mobile friendly, then the search results come up and im transported back to 1999. I wonder if they would be open to having someone come fix the interface for them. id be willing to do it. but other than that small detail its a really good tool
BookFinder is great. I’ve used it several times since learning about it from this newsletter a couple months ago. :) Great minds! https://www.recomendo.com/p/bookfinderright-now-listopinionateio
Ahhh! Kevin recommended it previously. How could I have missed that? 😂
Re: Laptop Finder...when in the US I have had a lot of luck working from the local public library. Some even have workrooms to take phone calls.

Do we know anything about the owners of exoenclose? Would def love to see folks move away from Uline.

Totally agree, I meant my question not sarcastically. Just want to make sure I’m not trading one for another.
re:Bookfinder.com ==> Yes it is a subsidiary of AbeBooks....which, in turn, is owned by AMAZON.
