USPS and shipping Cards of any kind
I dont normally go this far with issues, but I am very frustrated, and I know others have experienced this Issue with sending sports cards or any other cards. For round numbers.... I can send out 100 cards to buyers and i will get 5 to 10 back, or they just disappear in the tracking. I have received cards back that tell me they can not send them through the system, even though 90 of the same setup cards made it through. some times i get it back saying I have to pay more money. It is now beginning to affect my store, and i am starting to think that I have to just close this store because the USPS hates Ebays card sales. Any information is greatly appreciated. If ive done this completely wrong, I apologize and hope to learn and handle this better next time.

Mentor8 months agoI see that you are selling sports trading cards for less than $20, and are using the ebay standard envelope.
No smaller than 3.5 x 5
No larger than 6.125 x 11.5
Envelope thickness is uniform, less than 0.25 inches at all points, and not too rigid.
Make sure they can wrap around a Coke can easily.
The ebay standard envelopes are "read" by the scanners at the sorting machines, so make sure the size and thickness meet the requirements. Then they are sent to your local post office for final delivery. That is why they show as DELIVERED several days before actually being delivered to the buyer.
If you have to refund the buyer for an Item Not Delivered case, you can get reimbursed here:
