Default oversize mailing box blues

I ordered 2 carbide cutters for a turning tool from Crafts Supply..
Each cutter is in a plastic box about an inch square and maybe 3/4" thick..

They came today in a 7" x 7" x 4" box, filled with inflatable bladders..
Seems like a padded envelope or MUCH smaller box would be cheaper to buy and
cost less to mail, besides killing less trees..

I know.. picky, picky, picky... but I hate to see waste like this, especially
from a place that ships thousands of packages a month..
