Question about packing fragile items safely
Hi everyone! I just started my selling journey on eBay and I’m a bit nervous about shipping. Does anyone have advice on the best materials to use for fragile items? I want to make sure my buyers receive everything in perfect condition. Thank you!

·5 months agoFragile heavy or fragile light? What are you selling? We can help you if you tell us what the items are. If you're selling pottery, glass, anything heavy and breakable, you're best bet is to wrap the items with both small and large bubble, and then use heavy craft paper as void fill in an appropriately-sized box. The small bubble is what you would use to keep the separate parts of the item from banging against itself and the large is best for the cocoon. The craft paper is a stabilizer that won't pop or collapse.
For lightweight, fragile items, bubble wrap and bubble pillows offer adequate protection and keep the shipping weight down.
So, again, what are you selling?

·5 months agoNARU stands for "Not A Registered User". That's what you see if you try to view the user's profile or listings on eBay now:
