Shipping w/flat rate boxes on ebay.....?

I am pretty up to date with ebay itself, but I'm more a buyer than a seller. I have two items listed and I found a place where I can get those flat shipping rate boxes in a pack of 10 for free from USPS? Anyone done this? Does it cost shipping or anything? Can anyone give me more information on this? Thanks!

1. Yes, those boxes are available for free from USPS.com. You can also get free Priority Mail boxes and envelopes. They do not charge to ship the boxes to you, although some items you have to pay for, like Priority Mail logo tape.
2. The boxes (and delivery of the boxes) are always free. The shipping is a flat rate per box, no matter how much (or how little!) it weighs. Currently the flat rate is $8.95 per box.
