Just ordered some with my coupon. Interesting size, I think.

I think I ordered some of those and never used them. Most things that fit in there will fit a priority mail shoe box size since the package will most likely be over 1 lb anyway, unless the contents are really light.

I will be able to use them. My daughter is not only a picker, but has also been buying on online auctions and estate sales. She brings me some really odd-shaped things that I have to frankenbox often.

They most not have been stocking the 12 x 12 x 12 for a while, then, because they've been around for quite a while. I go through them at a regular rate, mostly in the winter, but haven't needed to order any lately because I use more of the 12 x 16 x 8 (I think that's the size) - sometimes I ship two or three in a day and I'm not a big seller, just sell a lot of coats and multiples. They're both a handy size if you ship larger, odd sized things.

Oh okay . I saw a post about them being new on Facebook. I don't remember seeing them before. I can usually fit my coats into a 12 x 12 x 8, but I need something higher sometimes.

They used to have the 12x12x12, because I ordered some a long time ago. They are perfect for cutting up and wrapping around the CDs that I sell for protection. I cut them into 6x12 strips and get 16 uses out of one box (2 each on the 4 sides and 8 flaps). I've been using the 12x6x6 boxes and getting only 6 uses out of each box.

I used a lot of 12x12x12 boxes when selling Coach. I bet I still have quite a few line boxes left.
I really should list my boxes on CL because I have no intentions of getting back into selling unless people start buying Coach bags and briefcases again.

May have been because they were discontinued for a while. They have a bunch of box sizes they don't offer anymore or just intermittently, and it's impossible to know why or when.

Be careful using 12 x 12 x 12 or 16 x 12 x 8 boxes. Those measurements on most boxes are the interior measurements. The outside is a fraction of an inch bigger on each side. My PO started checking every box in November. I used to use the 16 x 12 x 8 boxes all the time with no problem. Suddenly they were an issue. I sent a cheap item from IN to CA in one. It was a 2 pound box. It arrived postage due $35. So now I use FedEx for all my bigger boxes.
I just checked the ebay boxes. The listing says interior measurment.

I got them mostly for my daughter's decor stuff, and she does take them to UPS usually to mail. But she could also use FedEx.

I use FedEx because I don't like our local UPS stores but I think they FedEx and UPS are pretty similar.
