KbKards

Just a reminder for Ebay store owners on the quarterly $25-$75 coupon they give you to spend on shipping supplies from a particular store. It is hidden under the manage my store link.

Scroll down and in the middle click on Subscriber Discounts.
First one should be Ebay shipping supplies. It will be $25 to $75 based on store type.
Click on see details, and copy the coupon code that's in the block.
Click on start shopping to take you to the specific store honoring the coupon code.
Best deal for maximizing value is the eBay Branded Airjacket Envelopes 6.5" x 8.75" 100 for $24.64, or 300 for under your $75 if you have anchor store.
A physical address is required for delivery, and after pasting in coupon code make sure total goes to $0 before "paying" via PayPal.

This renews every quarter and this one expires September 30th.

I don't have an eBay store but this is great information for anyone who does. Thanks for sharing.

Also, if you ship priority - obviously not a big concern for single-card sellers - you can order free priority mail supplies off of the USPS web site. Their site includes box sizes and envelopes (like padded bubble mailers) often not found in post offices.

USPS Priority is the way to go.

If you sell on eBay, order the Priority Regional Rate A box. It is slightly smaller than a medium flat rate box and you are charged a varying rate based on how far you are shipping an item. Your worst case scenario is around $10 (still a little less than a MFR box) for cross country, but you can ship within the same region for about $6 (much less than a MFR box). I just ordered a pack of 10 and they showed up in three days and they were free (including delivery). I will ship a single wax box in one of these. I do suggest reinforcing them with some extra cardboard though for expensive items as they use thinner cardboard stock for these boxes than their usual flat rate boxes.

Bump as a reminder that this quarter is up March 31st. I use 2 bubble mailers per order, kind of like how PWCC packages their items. Also, I am sure to place the shipping label over the eBay logo as a precaution.
