Where do you buy keyboard shipping boxes? Want to sell a few of my collection, but I'm a bit short.

You can get them at Elitekeyboards.com.
They're on the expensive side, but they come with a free mechanical keyboard, so that balances it out.
Joking aside, are these an option (https://shop.usps.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=10052&productId=10001232&langId=-1&parent_category_rn=10000002&top_category=10000002&categoryId=10000033&top=¤tPage=0&sort=&viewAll=Y&rn=CategoriesDisplay&WT.ac=10001232)? Might be a bit wide. Don't know if they're long enough. I'm spatially retarded. Upside is, they're free. I'm sure you're planning on mailing them with priority mail eventually...

Large priority mail is too short, the medium boxes are actually longer at 13-5/8" x 11-7/8" x 3-3/8", and I still think that's not going to work for most keyboards. A Filco tenkeyless is 14", so you'd only be able to fit some pretty small keyboards in any of the free priority mail boxes. Really, I've got nothing. Maybe check at the local UPS/FedEx to see what size boxes they have? I think FedEx has an 18"x12"x3" that'd be about right...
