What moves the price
For paper mailer, the drivers are dimensions, gauge, adhesive strip, opacity, print coverage — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale ranges for custom mailers and kraft/chipboard-style mailers cluster around $0.18–$0.42 at 5,000 units, with custom poly-mailer benchmark pricing as low as $0.15/unit at 5,000+ and $0.31/unit at 5,000 from a real supplier. Price moves most with board caliper and construction, print coverage, recycled-content/spec requirements, size, and whether the supplier is a domestic trade printer or an import/landed-equivalent route; heavier or more customized paperboard mailers sit toward the top of the band. Lead times were not stated consistently in the sources provided, so no reliable single number can be supported.
