Good thing about eBay sales. It keeps delicate items out of the rain.

One reason I don't like to do flea marts and outdoor antique shows is the fear of my delicate paper items getting rained on. That's why I seal my items in archival plastic and poly bags or foam padding so if the postman gets caught in a rain storm it...
