and for some odd reason....I found it cheaper to put them in a box from corner to corner, than to post them length ways !!
It's true, but it may depend upon the courier.

The above advice is not top if using the Royal Mail because because it'll count as a "Packet" in either case. It will be cheaper to post in a bag because that will be much lighter.
A jiffy bag (or bubble wrap & brown paper) will be adequate pacakging as long as no one sits or stands on it!, though a box may make your recipient feel better.
Packing with blocks of expanded polystyrene is a third and lightweight option.

There are huuuuge jiffy bags, but two smaller ones could be taped together.

I'd put them in a box, but then I'm a postman, and I know how the stuff gets treated when it goes through the system. Also, in a box they'll likely be delivered by van. Any other way, the postie might have to jam them in his bag, increasing the chance of them getting scraped along a wall or other such accidental damage. It all depends how much they're worth I suppose, a box will be heavier and may cost more to post.0
