    Shipping from Canada help

    I'm looking to start selling some of my cards, what am I better off doing to ship? Should I just bring the package to the post office and have them ship it for me or should I put stamps on myself and drop it off in the mailbox? Id prefer #2 but I feel like there's a higher chance they will get lost or something lol. Any tips would be appreciated!

    I normally do #2...... and I have never had a package go missing.

    Just be sure to put the correct amount of postage on it.

    I should do option #2, but I like option #1. The post office is very close, plus the post office workers are very nice, haha! So i just bring my packages to them to ship it.

    Plus, unless it's their first day on the job, they usually make sure my postage is always correct. Only once in 12 years has a package come back for insufficient postage!
    Always looking for Senators cards! Must be a draft pick, or the card is identifiable as a Senators card before I want it!
    Until further notice, I ship on Mondays. Only day off, so only chance to get to the Post Office.

    Likewise, I always use the post office to be certain there are packages that have insufficient postage.

    Yeah the second would be so much easier for me where I work overnights and sleep during the day. Thanks for the input everyone

    Buy a mailing scale so you can get the correct weights for your packages. Unless your simply selling single cards.

    My rule of thumb is that I get tracking on cards > $100 everything else I stamp myself.

    After sending 1000's of packages via stamps I'd say there's about a 0.01% chance it never arrives.
