1. just throw it in a bubble mailer and ship?
2. throw 2 pieces of cardboard around it with tape throw in bubble mailer and ship?
3. wrap bubble wrap around the card throw it in a bubble mailer and ship it ?
4. ship it a completely different way?

    I don't sell many cards, but that's how I've always done it.

    Why would you slap all your shipping supplies?

    3. wrap bubble wrap around the card (and tape it) and throw it in a bubble mailer and ship it. I also use packing tape to seal up the bubble mailer. Never had any problems.

    Put the slab in an pwe and write the details of the sale on the envelope.

    Wrap THICK cardboard around the enveloped-slab; one sheet in each direction.
    Tape the cardboard to itself.

    Put the wrapped-slab into a bubble-mailer.

    Add at least two THICK cardboard squares to the mailer; one on each side of slab.

    Insert packing slip.

    Double-seal the mailer with WIDE clear-tape.

    Stamp "Fragile" and "Do Not Bend" on the mailer.

    Insurance/DC/Sig-Con as required.

    Hope for the best.

    Cardboard the slab front & back...rubberband it.
    Into bubble mailer with DC in the U.S.
    Can fit 3 slabs with cardboard in a 6X8 bubble mailer.
    Anything more, I ship them in a small box with packing peanuts.
  • 1. Place slab in graded team bag. Anyone who doesn't needs to learn how to ship.

    2. Wrap item in bubble wrap. 2-3 revolutions are more than sufficient. (I typically do, failed to on my last shipment image ).

    3. Tape bubble securely around card & team bag. Be sure to NOT let tape touch team bag. That's annoying.

    4. Wrap item securely in newspaper.

    5. Place totally secured item in big bubble mailer (box for multiple items).

    6. Bring to PO to ship.



    Not hard.
