So can you ship these from your house or do you have to take it to the post office? Also if I put say 5 or so cards in a team bag and it is still less than 3 ounces and under 20 dollars is that allowed? Or is there a limit to how many cards you can put inside a team bag? I know about the limit to 2 top loaded cards but I don’t know about the team bagged cards. Please help.

Yep you ship them directly from your house then drop them off at the PO or put them in your mailbox. You can’t ship more than 1 toploader standard envelope or it’s too thick. You’ll want to ship those USPS first class

What do you do when USPS does not scan the tracking at any of their terminals? I have several cards that weren't scanned at all and several more that the last scan was the Nashville TN terminal. Unless the buyer is honest, I'm pretty sure I'll have to send a refund and lose the cards I shipped as well.

@MillennialProfit 5 месяцев назад

Make sure to tell your usps about the service so they get the initial scan.

@KeithElliott 2 года назад

What exactly is the risk to losing Top Rated Seller status using this method? My concern is, since the tracking is not exactly the same as shipping a first class package, what protects you from eBay's 'Tracking uploaded on time and validated' section under Seller Level?

@MillennialProfit 2 года назад

Well since less than 1% of my sales from cards I haven’t put any thought into it. If it’s a big part of your business then maybe create a separate selling account just for cards. My PO is great tho and always scans them in

My post office is sending a good chunk of my mailings back. I am using just the penny sleeve top loader and painter's tape on the top. I am using CardBoard Gold Standard 3x4 Top Loaders. When I contacted eBay they said that the problem I am having is because I am using a to thick of a Top Loader and that there are thinner ones out there. What companies Top Loaders are you using to manage to get them through and are thinner? The Post office is saying when they look at the Top Loader by itself (with no penny sleeve or card in it) it is to firm/dense and needs the nonmachinable upcharge. I do not use any extra cardboard as you mentioned. Just the Penny Sleeve, Top Loader and Painter's Tape
