I Invested in a "Photo Box" with 2- LED strips, 5 interchangeable background colors, compact folds to size of normal thin 2 pocket plastic school folder with cloth carrying case. Simply Genius! And for Less than $20 on eBay, US ship. U can even p/u 1 w/ adjustable LED 4 few bucks more, why not? Would've help my OCD/ADHD azz, but U don't needed for shooting cards. I also bought a nice slick compact tripod 4 about $15 w/ remote & BAM! U just got yourself a Pro cardboard shooting mobile studio plus.

Sold 1000s of cards with Ebay Standard Envelope: Card into a penny sleeve, into a top loader, taped on the top, wrapped in a 1/2 piece of printer paper, into an envelope. Tape, label and ship. Takes 20 seconds to do and no issues to date. No need for a team bag or extra cards.

Flying Dutchmen Cards when you go to print your label on the top left it asks for the weight. Change it to 1 Oz. If you are shipping 2 regular cards in the same loader push it to 2 Oz. I always select the 2 Oz & I add 4 cents when I drop them off so they go non machinable. The cards are safer going that way.

Mailed out my first card today. More than $20, but still used the best practices you go over in this video. Thanks for putting it out there. It was very helpful.

This one video went over all the questions I had. Clear, concise and many helpful tips. Def enjoyed it. Thanks!

Great thorough video. Only thing I would add (not sure if you normally do) is that when I take pictures of the card(s) I crop out most of the background so the card is up close. This way if the buyer clicks on the picture they get a REALLY big picture of the card to see the corners/gloss etc. I sometimes change the backdrop so it's not a white bordered card on a white backdrop. If someone uses scotch tape for the top loader put a smaller second piece facing the other way in the middle of the longer piece so if the card slides out of the top loader it won't stick on the tape. Continued success.

Thank you for the thorough walkthrough, Scottie. We found it very informative and your steps easy to follow.

Best step by step video I've ever seen on here. Answered every single question of mine.

Thank you for putting this rundown together! I just started selling cards on ebay, and I thought shipping would be a breeze (until the Post Office told me that my standard envelope was too rigid). This video was extremely helpful!

This is the absolute best tutorial video and exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

Just re-watched and will be sending my first envelope tracked card tomorrow. Thanks for the tutorial!
