I haven't personally shipped in significant quantity, but I've rec'd a lot and gotten some lessons learned from those as well as the expert shippers here. Redundancy is the key, and prevention of movement inside the box. Don't trust the box, do tape the box, don't put everything in one bag, don't use multiple abrasive bags (tyvek) if they can rub on each other (they will rub holes in each other - use some plastic between them to prevent chafing). Even the HD canvas bags can split - I've had more than one canvas bag arrive split open.
I use the FED rated HD plastic coin bags for storage, and they should be good for shipping as well if you follow the above and the penny shipping thread guidelines.
