How to Ship on TCGPLAYER - The Hardest Part of SELLING CARDS

New favorite tuber

I really like how you print the invoice on thermal paper. I'll have to give that a try. I use green tape folded over with pull tabs lol

You using A4 envelopes?

I can't stand when I get an order "for a $4 card" and it's taped up like a boxer's hand before going in the glove 😢

could you link the thermal printer and labels you use? I find that the labels tend to add up in price

my comment got deleted i guess lol, but ya i just use window envelopes and print the packing sheet out on regular paper, but i have a laser jet printer so its not too bad. My question is, is your method of buying postage cheaper than normal stamps? Im REALLY looking forward to the video about tcg direct cuz i havent ventured into that yet, thanks for the video!

For your 39 card example with the cut binder sheets and the plain white envelope. Do you add cardboard on either side? Awesome video btw!

I WISH I bought cards from you in the past. I certainly will in the future. It’s an adventure every time I receive my TCGPlayer cards in the mail.

If only TCGPlayer had the eBay PWE program.

do you have links to the other shipping supplies like the envelopes you use? I haven't heard anyone say that smaller envelopes work for them and they don't get sent back a lot. I've laywas heard #10 envelopes work best.

I've also heard people using the card binder sleeve method, but I'm having a hard time visualizing how they would fit all of that into a envelope without it being too bulky.

How do you get your PWE postage in landscape? I'd like to use my new thermal printer for regular envelope postage but can't figure out how to get out of portrait.

Best shipping advice in the game change your own game up!

So you use A4 envelopes with shipping shields and print both the packing slip and shipping, return address as well as stamp all on your thermal printer via Rollo?

What’s your size to print out your envelope on your thermal printer
Cause I have a Rollo as well but my information comes out small and barely readable

Any reason in particular not to just print the label directly on the envelope?

Those Shipping Shields are not cheap. I looked it up and the cheapest I saw was 8 cents each for 9000. Those custom ones have to be way more expensive. I just use half of a folded vending machine sleeve. If you buy them in bulk, they are half of one cent. They work great and I have had folks say it was well shipped. Just an idea to save on shipping costs. The margins are so thin on these cards ever little bit you can save on shipping helps a ton.

What if you have an evil post office that says all cards are non machinable because the envelope isn’t uniformly flat and want me to pay for non machinable? Any advice?

This looks like a great low cost effective method. Thanks

Buy stamps from estate sales for 40% market value. I profit $.60 on an $.08 card and I use the nicest paper and enveloped available

There two types of TCG sellers:

The very generous and smart packaging seller like you

VS

The very low effort or cheap ones that put singles in a penny sleeve without toploader then call it a day
