Hello.  I would suggest you find some anti-static bags (ESD, electro-static
discharge).  I have ordered from www.staticbags.com.  His service was fine.
If you don't need many, try to go to a mom and pop PC repair shop and see if
they have a few extra bags they could sell you.  Search on www.google.com or
other search engines for anti-static or ESD, etc.

Hope this helps,
