    High end card shipping

    Ive never been to into the high end world of trading or selling, but ive got a rather high end card to move, and im not sure the best way to ship it. It is most likely going to be going US to canada. I think I would be best putting it as signature required but I dont really know. Any suggestions?

    How High end are we talking? I deal in high end stuff all the time. When I ship to Candada I just ship Priority Mail and have it insured up to a certain amount. Sure it costs $30 bucks or so sometimes but it lets you sleep better at night.

    Signature required is always a good thing.

    Personally, I just had one shipped to me (US to Canada) and it was insured for the full value. The seller told me it was his cheapest option of the two.

    I have shipped quite a few high end to Canada and its never been cheap. If i remember the cheapest i have paid was right around $25 fully insured.

    I know I've done the other direction, Canada to USA, and it cost me about $25. Worth it.

    One touches with masking tape holding together. NEVER use scotch tape. As far as sending hi end stuff, i wouldn't know because I can't afford that stuff!!!!

    The card is a $400 PK Subban SP Authentic future watch patch. When sending sig required are you doing UPS, fedex, or USPS?

    for US to canada, your cheapest option is probably first class registered mail, but you have to purchase additional insurance (cause you will be only covered for $45 or so)...it will cost you probably around $20 or so.

    i'm in Canada and I print my labels through PayPal. I ship expedited parcel to the USA, and with $399.00 insurance it would cost me $16 or so. If you go for $400 insurance it costs you an extra $1.50. I have never had an issue and have sent cards that sold for as much as $3000. But that is Canada to USA, I'm not sure your options in the US. Always send with tracking and signature required, and if possible full insurance. protects you and the buyer! Good luck
