Ok, for anyone else who's interested in shipping their haul from the auction
(or merely not having to lug their dirty laundry home on the plane), here's
what I learned on my morning walk:

   - The US Post Office at 234 West 18th
Avenue<http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=109177078734346687799.0004893f6cbcc360f5cf0&ll=40.001945,-83.011816&spn=0.010569,0.015986&z=16&iwloc=000489aad6104ee08ce82>
(across
   from the Math building--yay!) is open 9:00 to 5:00.  They appear to have a
   selection of flat-ish boxes, max 3-4" thick, but I was looking through the
   glass into a darkened post office.
   - On 15th Street near its intersection with High
Street<http://www.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=109177078734346687799.0004893f6cbcc360f5cf0&ll=40.00035,-83.00754&spn=0.002642,0.003996&z=18&iwloc=lyrftr:m,934122112757932135,40.000223,-83.00761>is
a FedEx Office Print & Ship Center.  There I found a 20"x20"x12" box
that
   will accommodate all the cra, er, unique items I bought at the auction as
   well as the second bag I flew here with.
