Im curious what shipping others use.. I typically send priority mail... with delivery confirmation.. I put folded posters in some cardboard then wrap in foam..
If rolled i use a Yazoo tube either 2 inch, 3 inchor 4 inche.. i wrap in fom and kraft paper. for me it seems to cost 700 10,00 depending on where it goes.. overseas islike average 30.00 Unless someone demand 1st class then its like 15-8 but i warn the customer there is no good tracking and its slower. the priority also i can get the box supplie free.. otherwize a tub cost is average like 2 -3.00 and other materials you can have like 3-5 in materials If i get heavy boxes i use fed ex groundor priority flat rate I hope to sell some more posters on ebay soon Ihave some horror drive in movies stuff 60-70s I would appreciate some input from collectors and dealers so i can improve my service better. thanks Folks everyone have a good night > > >---- Original Message ---- >From: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [MOPO] 4 extra folds? 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 extra >undisclosed folds >Date: Fri, 7 Oct 2011 22:08:41 -0400 > >>Are you kidding?????????? >>All this fuss over a $38 poster >> >>Burn it now. >> >>CJL >> >> >>In a message dated 10/7/2011 7:43:41 P.M.
