    Wow, $4.50 shipping, when it costs me under $2 total for a PSA card wrapped in bubble wrap in a Staples bubble mailer to anywhere in the continental US. Way to gouge on shipping.

    Well, at least your minimum bid is twice what this card normally sells for.

    CD,

    if you can ship a card PRIORITY with DC for under 2.00, please enlighten the rest of us how it's done.

    Whoops, my mistake.

    Still, I'm sure most folks would prefer to have a $10 card in 4 days for $2 rather than 2 days for $4.50. Nevertheless, I apologize for the accusation.

    Lee...

    I hate Priority mail and I generally will not buy from any seller that forces me into using it.

    it is THE single biggest FARCE that our USPS has running and even my postal clerks will not deny that.

    I don't offer it and won't use it unless someone specifically wants me to or unless they buy so much that the flat rate box is worth my time.

    Not to mention that First Class often gets there within the 2-3 days anyway, so people are basically just throwing money away.

  • Guys - just a question...is ther any way to use DELIVERY CONFIRMATION besdies PORIORITY? I do PRIORITY for cards of any value over about $20 because it allows me to get a DC#.

    You can put delivery confirmation on regular first class. I think it's like .60 extra, but not sure. I do mine through paypal which is free.

    PayPal charges $0.14 for delivery confirmation on first class items.

    here's how I ship....

    I use a piece of cardboard.......(my dad orders these as "45" RPM mailer padding)....

    fold it over in half, put the card in there. Tape the 3 open ends.

    Place this in the bubble mailer.


    I use first class with Del. Con.
