I pack with bubble envelopes (had one seller on ebay ship to me in a manilla envelope, with just bags on the books, eek!) and reuse the cardboards I get from other sellers. Always pretty much boarded and bagged.
Nothing worse than raw books being sent through any mail system without at least some padding and protection. Over the years, have received some books ruined by poor packing.

I have no registry points, so the only way to exercise my geek superiority is by being a jerk.

God bless the buyers of Canada - I think I ship more books there than to the USA 
That's because it's too treacherous to venture outside our igloos 350 days of the year!
But really, it's just because there isn't much selection up here. I live in a city of 500k, we have two stores that sell comics...
One is actually decent, but only sells new releases, once they're gone they're gone, they don't deal in anything older.
The other is 1/3 comics, the rest dungeons and dragons, MTG, and those little war hammer guys. Again, they only deal with new stuff...
I'd say 90% of my collection is from the states 
Once in a while I'll find another Canadian seller online or on eBay, but it's fairly rare.
