Default Gettin rid of an overage of boro frits

I have a pretty large overage of boro frits right now and some that I just don't use so I am going to sell it in the garage. I need to know how people would like me to break it down. I will be packaging it in zip lock little baggies cause the little containers are cost prohibitive. Was thinking of breaking it down in 2oz packages and also making up a few sample packs with several 1oz packages. Would this be good or would people rather have 4oz packages? I'm going to break it down tonight if I get the rest of my cleaning and running around done this afternoon. Let me know what you think, I have somewhere between 20-30 dif frits to break down.
thanks
chrisann

The bags are good for me since cheaper shipping 1oz/2oz/4oz will be good as well.

You better be quick to put them up for sale before I buy some from the vendor.

I think I know somebody that could help you out with that on Monday.
My vote is for 2 and 4 ounce.

Being a semi boro newbie, I don't have a lot of boro frit... I'd love the one ounce samples or the two ounce... even more so if they are marked as what they are

I'd be interested in original containers and shipping doesn't matter price wise to me
